When to scrap your old car

It's nearly 15 years old

Registration on a private car lasts 15 years. After that it has to pass a fitness test every five years to renew, and many states add a green tax on top. For a lot of older cars, the cost just isn't worth it.

It failed the fitness test

An unfit car can't be driven legally. If the repairs to pass will cost a lot, scrap it and take the COD instead.

It's flood or accident damaged

Water in the engine and wiring, or a bent frame, is rarely fixed for good. We take total-loss cars, insurance cases included.

It's over the Delhi-NCR limit

Diesel cars older than 10 years and petrol cars older than 15 face age limits in Delhi-NCR, and BS-III or older ones can be seized. Scrap it and you get money and a COD instead of a fine.

The repair bills never stop

Clutch, suspension, AC, rust. When a year's bills add up to more than the car is worth, it's time to let it go.

It hasn't moved in years

A car that just sits in the parking is still registered to you. Scrap it, take the money and free up the space.

Your car's value

Scrap car value: what your car is worth

Most of a car's scrap value is in its steel. Bigger cars weigh more, so they're worth more. Use the table below to see roughly where your car fits.

Car sizeTypical empty weight
Small hatchbackAbout 700 to 900 kg
Large hatchback or compact sedanAbout 900 to 1,100 kg
Full-size sedanAbout 1,050 to 1,300 kg
Compact SUVAbout 1,150 to 1,400 kg
Large SUV or MUVAbout 1,500 to 2,200 kg

These weights are only a guide. The exact unladen weight of your car is printed on the RC.

Share the details

02

Get your price

We call back with a price range and confirm it after a free look at the car.

03

Hand over the papers

The original RC, the owner's PAN and Aadhaar, and a cancelled cheque. Add a bank NOC if the car was on a loan.

04

Pickup and payment

Our tow truck picks up the car, and the money reaches your bank account on pickup day.

05

Your COD

We deface your RC in front of you and issue your Certificate of Deposit on Vahan.

Your CVS

The car is dismantled and its chassis number destroyed. The Certificate of Vehicle Scrapping is issued, and we send it with the defaced RC to the RTO to cancel the registration.

Fuel types

Scrapping CNG, LPG and electric cars

CNG and LPG cars

Before the car is dismantled, the gas cylinder is emptied, removed and made unusable. Mention the kit when you call, and keep the kit papers ready if the fitment is shown on the RC.

Electric cars

Trained staff disconnect and remove the high-voltage battery before anything else, and it goes to an authorised battery recycler. An EV gets its COD the same way as any other car.

What you get

Car scrapping benefits: price, tax rebate and COD

The scrap price

Paid into the owner's bank account, with a receipt.

Up to 50% off motor vehicle tax

Register your next car in Rajasthan against your COD and the state's 2025 scrapping policy gives up to 50% off the motor vehicle tax, capped at ₹1 lakh. Most other states give up to 25% on a private car.

How the COD works

No registration fee

Show your COD and the registration fee on the new car is waived.

A closed file

The CVS proves the car has been scrapped, and the RTO cancels its registration once we send the papers.

Before you hand over your car for scrapping

Clear out your things

Check the glovebox, the boot, under the seats and the spare wheel well.

Close your FASTag

Close it with the bank that issued it and get any balance refunded.

Take out your add-ons

Remove a music system or dashcam you added, unless you want it counted in the price.

Cancel your insurance

Once you have the CVS, ask your insurer to cancel the policy. Many refund part of the unused premium.

Leave the number plates on

We take them off and destroy them at the yard.

Keep a copy of the RC

Make a photocopy for yourself before you hand over the original.

Questions

Car scrapping FAQs

Yes. We tow it on a flatbed free of charge within our pickup area. Missing parts bring the price down, but we still take the car.

Yes. Cars can be scrapped at any age. Plenty of owners scrap younger cars after a flood, a fire or a major accident.

We usually pick up within 24 to 48 hours of agreeing the price. The COD normally comes a few working days after pickup. Rajasthan's scrapping policy allows no more than 60 days between the COD and the CVS.

Yes, but tell us before we price the car, since it changes the value. The body and the chassis must reach us, and the chassis number has to be readable so it can be matched to the RC.

Not until the loan is closed. Pay it off, collect the NOC from the bank and get the loan entry removed from the RC at the RTO with Form 35. After that, we can scrap it. The documents page has more.
