The company would bring greater transparency into this market via effective and efficient processes, expanding alternatives to minimise the number of outdated cars travelling India's highways, Ashok Leyland told the media.

Sanjeev Kumar, Head MHCV at Ashok Leyland, told the media that the pre-owned or re-purposed vehicles industry saw an exponential and constant growth since the start of the epidemic due to the rise in the waiting period for automobiles and financial constraints.

The company said that it would also allow them to reach out to as many fleets and single vehicle owners as possible across India.
