We at Shriram Automall India
Limited (SAMIL) introduced the Physical Auction concept for pre-owned vehicles
& equipment in India by inaugurating our first Automall in Chennai on
February 26, 2011. Since then, we have been conducting hundreds of physical
auctions in every month at over 100 Automalls across India.
The Physical auction
platform stands strong on our innovative approach towards facilitating the buying
and selling of pre-owned commercial vehicles, passenger vehicles, construction
equipment, tractors, agricultural equipment, three wheelers and two wheelers.
It is a known fact in the industry that our widespread Automalls, full of splendid line-ups of vehicles and equipment, crowded auction halls and live auction in action are nothing less than of a Grand Event with excitement all around. Buyers come from all over the country to witness the lifetime experience while inspecting, valuating, comparing, bidding and buying the vehicle or equipment they are looking for.

carefully as he introduces each lot and call for bids.
Watch
the bid catcher carefully: Bid catcher conveys your bids to the
auctioneer. So, observe the bid catcher carefully to place your bid.
Raise
your Bidder Book to bid: To place your bid, you need to raise
your Bidder Book. Bid catcher communicates if you have been outbid and need to
bid again.
Highest
Bidder Wins: To win a vehicle, bidders make sure that
their quoted amount is the highest. Out of all bids received, only the highest
quote wins.
Pay
and Take Delivery of your desired vehicle or equipment: Once
a bidder quotes the highest bid on a vehicle, his RSD amount is deducted from
the price quoted by him. Successful Bidder has to pay a minimum ten percent
