Government Policies on Vehicle Scrapping in India
Understand the scrappage policy, incentives, and how a COD can unlock rebates on your next vehicle.
Key takeaways
- Older, high-emission vehicles may attract higher road taxes and fitness costs.
- Scrapping with a certified yard earns you a COD for deregistration and potential incentives.
- Many states offer rebates on new registration when you submit a COD.
India’s vehicle scrappage policy encourages retirement of old, polluting vehicles by tightening fitness norms and offering incentives for responsible disposal.
When you scrap with a certified facility, you receive a Certificate of Destruction. This document is key for deregistration and claiming any state-specific incentives or fee rebates.
Check your state transport department’s latest notifications for benefits like reduced road tax or registration fees when buying a new vehicle against a COD.
Always work with authorized recyclers who follow environmental norms—proper depollution, material recovery, and safe disposal of oils and batteries.
