HERE IS HOW YOU CAN DISPOSE YOUR PRE-OWNED CAR ONLINE

Planning to dispose off your pre-owned car online? In this age of digital era, selling your pre-owned car through the local newspaper classified will take a lot of time. Newspaper Classified listings are designed to merely present inventory to shoppers and only last for a day or two. Consequently, the listings have less information to revel the car details and the interested customer has to call to make an appointment and see the vehicle. An online listing, on the other hand, is transactional and user can upload detailed information along with good photographs of the pre-owned car. Online sellers have the potential of reaching a larger market than local classifieds.

Here are the key points to guide you for trading online easily:

Do your Homework

While trading your car online, there is nothing more valuable than knowledge. Here are few things you should know about the car you are disposing:

·        Year/Make/Model/VIN/Factory Paint Color Code/Date of Manufacture

·        What are the common issues for this particular car? Have they been addressed?

·       How large is the displacement of the engine? On average, how many miles per liter does  the car return combined?

·         What is the average selling price for a car in this condition?

There are innumerable information hubs available from where you can easily learn about your car and other related information or you can just hire a mechanic.

Detail the Car

One of the first things that buyers notice is the condition of the car. Detailing a car is an art, but it need not be an expensive one. You'd likely be fine giving the car a cheap hand wash locally, but detailing allows you to virtually polish money into the finish of the car.

Take as many detailed pictures as possible

Pictures speak a thousand words and even before looking at the information what a buyer is interested in is looking at the cars photos. Make sure to take as many high-resolution pictures as possible. Modern point-and-shoot cameras have great dynamic range and amazing quality. Don’t use your mobile phones to take pictures with cell phone cameras, as their lenses leave a lot to be desired, and have a tendency of compressing images and decreasing quality.

Be Easy To Reach

Always include your contact details, preferably your mobile number after uploading a classified as it will give buyers a point of contact for more information. It's insanely frustrating to see a good deal, but the seller only has email as a viable means of contact.

Don't Buckle On the Price

If you own a good car which is desirable, you will definitely get a lot of buyers and most of these buyers will ask a good discount. Don’t get bullied by these buyers, keep in your mind the price you wish to sell you car. It's important that you choose a price that's realistic, based on market value. If your price is negotiable, inflate it by 10 percent, with a "Best Offer" option. That way the buyer feels like they saved some money and the seller gets the most that they can for their car. 

Looking to dispose your pre-owned car online but confused which portal to try? Connect with Shriram Automall India Limited and access to their online bidding platform, from where you can easily dispose your used cars and SUV’s. Online Car Bidding is a unique feature that is available with SAMIL and attracts customers due to the transparent approach acquired by SAMIL. You can also acquire used commercial vehicles and equipment from SAMIL’s physical bidding platform.

Rising Sales for Used Vehicles- Festive Season’s ample contribution to thank!!

Festive shine was seen all across the country with recent Diwali celebrations in October, gone by in full swing everywhere. Enthusiasm measures were as high as 10 on a scale of 1-10 for almost every sector and undoubtedly, all business industries experienced a visible thrust. While in the automobile industry new vehicles enjoyed the enhancing sale numbers by the hour, as per usual, it is the used vehicles segment which seems to have made a mark with its numbers this time.

Where people in India, mostly religion-oriented, prefer following the traditional norm of buying something new on a festival, the rise in used vehicles at this celebratory time is unusual and paints a promising picture for the industry. In particular for the used passenger cars and two-wheeler vehicles, the ascending sales have been noticeably higher than ever in the month of October.

As per media reports, the pre-owned car sales are experiencing a 15%-20% year-on-year increase with an overall 30% increase for the entire car retail segment. Big giants dealing in both new as well as usedcar vehicles have expressed their delight on the growing enhancement in the used vehicles sale. This considerable sale hike has baffled even the top players in the industry with the sizeable lower-middle class customer base going in for the reasonably priced pre-owned vehicles as opposed to the new ones.

Interestingly, these heightened sales have caught the attention of the online e-commerce space as well with even the top sites such as Amazon focusing more on the car accessories and other automobile parts for catering to the throng of customers. All these drastic developments are rare yet a very pleasing indication for the future of all the pre-owned industry operators.

As per the analysts, the used vehicles segment in the country is at a flourishing stage and is expected to grow up the ladder with an exceptional rate in years to follow. It seems all the merry-making of the occasion and the approaching year-end has indeed ignited many customers and also the transport-based businesses to invest in lucrative pre-owned automobiles.

GST IMPACT ON USED VEHICLE AND EQUIPMENT INDUSTRY

Hailed as one of the most significant economic reforms since India's independence, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a potential game-changer for the economy. While the legislation is yet to sail through the choppy waters of centre-state relations, its wide-ranging implications for a host of sectors are already under the scrutiny of the media and the commentariat. Given the pivotal space the automobile sector occupies in the Indian industry universe, it's natural that the GST's impact on it will have reverberations across the economy as a whole. Seeing the media reports surfacing in the recent past, one can easily judge the GST to be one of the most phenomenal changes sharply impacting the Indian economy.

GST is another type of indirect tax such as VAT and others but one that endeavors to bring the much needed tax uniformity in a developing nation like India. When the GST bill becomes active, reportedly in April, 2017, it is going to put together all the direct as well as indirect taxes levied currently into one flat consolidated tax to be applied evenly across the nation. Its impact on India's automobile industry will certainly be evident for it will entirely change the industry's price scenario.

As per media reports, the implication of GST is to result in a considerable 10% reduction in the prices of small car segment while a mere 2% for that of the SUVs and other luxury cars. This is supposedly to be the outcome of a flat tax rate application of 18-20% for the cars under 4-meter and that of 40% for the ones over 4-meter. This is opposed to the current differential figures of 12.5% excise duty for small cars, 24% for mid cars, 27% for luxury cars and 30% for the SUVs. 

While GST brings home great news for the small car segment and the new car buyers alike resulting from a significant drop in prices, the used car market is bound to suffer the impact of this plausible rise in the sales of new car market. Buyers will then be supposedly more inclined in the purchase of new cars, thus, flooding the used car market with relatively much less demand for them. This surplus supply of used car is to put dealers in a difficult situation of offering much lower prices for the used cars, resulting in losses overall. Consequentially, the resale value of cars is expected to go down by a good 10-15% owing to a highly competitive environment due to the high sale of new cars and increased pushing in of the used cars in the market.

Thus, while the post-GST era will see a flourishing time for the purchase of both new and used cars, it isn't going to benefit the sellers of used cars in any way.

This imbalance in the car prices that will be created post the implementation of the GST will have a vital impact on the automotive industry as well as the equipment industry as a whole. Where the new car segment will abruptly witness higher demand which can in turn will positively effect the auto equipment market but can also drastically put immense pressure on the equipment dealers which may even result in diminished quality. Also, the same debate of an adverse impact on roads and traffic as at the time of launch of Tata's Nano still holds true with a great number of two-wheeler segment expectedly shifting course to small cars.

As for the automotive and all the other major sectors of the economy, any drastic change brings in its own share of benefits as well as challenges for one and all from time to time. No set of predictions and preparations can put away the necessary rigid and pivotal consequences it can create in the long run. And yet there are major concerns to the final activation of the GST bill and more on its appropriate and uniform implementation in the entire economy alike. While the GST may have certain poignant aspects, eventually it all boils down to the manner in which it is applied and accepted in the market by both dealers and buyers in their capacity for it to become more of success, good news for the market.
