To Phase Out BS-III Vehicles, Government Yet to Decide a Policy!

A year ago, the Indian automobile industry recorded sales of 30lakh vehicles and hopes to develop at 8-9% every year. Regardless of whether, in 2020, all the new 40lakh vehicles are supposed to be compliant with BS-VI norms, there will be no calculable change in air quality if more existing vehicles, numbering somewhere in the range of 2.2 crore (more than 1.7 crore of which could be BS-III or beneath) are not eliminated.

The Supreme Court had before forced a prohibition on the sale and registration of vehicles that are not BS-IV compliant in India from April 1 when the new emission standards came into constrain.

To meet the demand of vehicles compliant with BS-VI emission norms in 2020, oil refineries have already made the fuel available for the manufacturers. But even as the initial couple of liters of Bharat Stage-VI standard fuel stream into filling stations in the national capital, the government of India is yet to settle on a solid policy required for scrapping old BS-I and BS-II vehicles.

The Indian government had chosen to skip BS-V emission norms for BS-VI, beginning April 1, 2020. It at that point chose to propel the due date for the national capital locale to April 1, 2018, in perspective of the expanded contamination/ pollution levels.

Up until this point, just a few carmakers have BS-VI agreeable models. Be that as it may, all the filling stations in NCR will get BS-VI fuel before the due date.

BS-VI fuel will prompt some change; however quantifiable advantages can be seen just on BS-VI consistent vehicles. Till such time these vehicles are accessible, BS-VI fuel will keep on operating on relatively lower emission efficient vehicles.

Till BS-VI vehicles show-up in the market, if you are keen on procuring used vehicles and equipment of your choice-able make and model, compliant with existing BS standards, Shriram Automall India Limited (SAMIL) is your OneStop Solution.

GUIDE TO DISPOSE YOUR CAR AT BIDS.SAMIL.IN

Planning to dispose off your used car or truck online? In this age of digital era, disposing your vehicle through the local newspaper classified won’t apply. Newspaper Classified listings are designed to merely present inventory to shoppers. Consequently, the listings have just enough information to motivate a shopper to call to make an appointment to see the vehicle. An online listing like bids.samil.in, on the other hand, is transactional. Online sellers have the potential of reaching a larger market than local classifieds.

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

Do your Homework

While trading your car, 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 gallon 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 the car and other related information or you can just hire a mechanic.

Detail of 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

The more the detailed information about the car the more the buyer will be attracted. Make sure to take as many high-resolution pictures as possible. Modern point-and-shoot cameras have great dynamic range and amazing quality. Stay away from taking 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 a contact number when you are putting your vehicle for the sale online because 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 have a car which is desirable enough, you will eventually get a lot of buyers. A fair number of these individuals will want a significant discount on the price, for any number of reasons. 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.

Don’t worry about finding a right online marketplace from where you can easily dispose your vehicle. Connect with Shriram Automall India Limited and access to their online bidding platform (bids.samil.in), 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. If  you are looking to purchase or dispose any kind of used vehicles in India, simply submit your requirement and get a call back from Shriram Automall to assist you further.

USED VEHICLE FINANCING MADE EASY

What if you want to own a second hand vehicle but don’t have enough money, so what are your options? Simple you look out for various vehicle finance companies for your vehicle, but do you have sufficient information about second hand vehicle loans and finance?

It is always recommended to polish your skills on used weapons and then go for the new ones – the saying is finding an apt application in vehicle segment of India today. Most of new drivers prefer to opt for pre-owned vehicles before investing huge money in new one. Though, acquiring financial help for used vehicles is nothing less than headache at present. There are 2 factors that play a vital role in pre-owned vehicle loans and they are vehicles age & the model. In India, people availing pre-owned vehicle financing options have to pay 3% more than the amount they are required to pay for latest vehicles. And, lastly, there is more chance that you may not get the complete value of the vehicle as loan.

As per norms, used vehicle loan is granted only when age of the vehicle and loan’s tenure do not go beyond 7 years in combined manner. Thus, if you are planning to get loan for 5 years, the age of your vehicle should not exceed two years in any condition. If you need a loan for 3 years, than the age must not exceed 4 years and the same is applicable for lesser years.

For used financing in India, there are two types of financial bodies available that can help you in this cause: banks and non-banking financial companies (NBFC’s).

You can benefit by connecting with Organised Dealer

Today you have enormous options available in market for you to choose from among the second-hand vehicles. And along with the vehicle many options of organised service providers are also available. These service providers source the vehicles, & put them up for sale.

Moreover most of the banks & NBFCs are at ease while financing a vehicle through an organised service provider because of the due vehicleeful checks done by them, which reduces the financiers' risk.

What we suggest you today is to connect with Shriram Automall, which solves both of your problem.
