What happened
APSTS is described as 'Arunachal Pradesh State Transport Services (or APSTS) is the state-owned road transport corporation in the Indian state of Arunachal Pradesh' and 'Public Sector Corporation under the Ministry of Transport of the State Government's of Arunachal Pradesh' (tertiary source, Wikipedia excerpt).
Its headquarters 'are located at APSTS Bus Station of Itanagar' and establishment timing is shown as '15 December 1975' with trade focus 'Public transport bus service' (tertiary source, Wikipedia excerpt).
The Arunachal Pradesh state portal's only reference is a services entry titled 'APSTS Bus Services' linking to 'https://apsts.arunachal.gov.in/' (government portal, arunachalpradesh.gov.in), supporting continued operation as a state service.
No separate legal identity, statute, financials, fleet size, or 2025-2026 official development could be confirmed from official pages opened; treated as departmental undertaking for this inventory rather than a confirmed statutory corporation.
What we could not confirm
Establishment date, ownership structure and HQ from tertiary excerpt only; no official APSTS annual report, gazette, or Transport Department order opened to confirm RTC-Act status, financials, or employees — all left null. No 2025-2026 official development found. District inferred from Itanagar. Legal form classified as departmental undertaking because 'Services' and gov.in hosting indicate departmental operation, but statutory creation cannot be ruled out.
