A power transmitting apparatus can comprise a plurality of gear stage clutches arranged on the way of a power transmitting path between an engine and the wheels. Each of the gear stage clutches include alternately arranged driving clutch discs and driven clutch discs, hydraulic pistons actuated by hydraulic oil to selectively engage or disengage the driving clutch discs and driven clutch discs, hydraulic chambers for actuating the hydraulic pistons, and supplying ports communicating with oil passages formed within the input shaft and opening on the side surface of the input shaft for supplying the hydraulic chambers with hydraulic oil from the oil passages to actuate the hydraulic pistons. A plurality of the supplying ports can be formed on a same plane of a radial cross-section of the input shaft.
