The used car market in India is growing very fast. The annual growth rate has been projected to be between 10% and 13%. The total sale of used cars in the financial year 2025-2026 soared to almost 60 Lakh. The most of the buyers of the fast expanding used cars market in India are from the tier-2 and tier-3 cities.

The growth in sales of used cars reflects the demand for used cars in the market. The huge demand had made the potential buyers of the car vulnerable to fraudulent sales. Frauds could be of many types. Some frauds are related to tampering with the identity of the car owners. Some frauds are related to mechanical conditions of the car. These are to name a few.

The cautious buyers seek authentic verification processes of the cars that they would like to buy. In order to help these buyers, there are several free public sector services like Vahan. One of the leading service providers in the private sector is AutoHealth. The CarChek feature in AutoHealth is quite useful for the potential buyers of used cars.

What is RTO?

In India, RTO stands for Regional Transport Office. They are run by the state governments and also by the Union Territories under Motor Vehicles Act 1988. They keep records about all the driving licenses, vehicle registrations and vehicle inspections. In other words they are the ‘Chitragupta’ in the world of cars.

Among public sector portals, Vahan provides limited information about a vehicle if the license plate number of the vehicle is given to forms at Vahan Website. All this information is collected and managed by the Regional Transport Authorities run by different state governments. The State Governments and the Union Territories share this information with the central authorities.

The information that Vahan portal generates is not always sufficient. In order to provide the potential buyer of a used car with various facts about the car s/he was about to buy, AutoHealth brought a holistic service. This is to help the buyer to make an informed decision.

What are RTO vehicle details?

The RTO provides details about drivers and vehicles. This information includes, but is not limited to, verifying the information like the name of the owner of the car and address of the owner of the car, the chassis number and engine number of the car. Often that information is kept masked. The potential buyer had to make some guess work to match the name of the owner registered with the authorities and the owner before them.

Why must a buyer of a used car know the RTO Details of the car that they are buying?

The reasons are simple. The buyer must be cautious so that they would not end up being the victim of fraud. The buyer of the used car must check some facts with the license plate number of the used car with the RTO’s record and compare those facts with the facts that the seller has shared. Those facts include the followings -

  • The owner information - The owner information on the RTO’s report generated for the license plate number of the used car on sale should match with the owner information that the seller has shared with the potential buyer of the car. If there is any mismatch, the buyer should abandon the idea of buying the same car.
  • The engine number and the chassis number - If these numbers on the car are not same as those of the RTO’s report, then the buyer must not proceed with the purchase. In nutshell, to prevent used car trading frauds, buyers of the used cars must check if the RTO information available for license plate number of the used car on sale matches with the other details (owner’s information, chassis number, engine number, fuel type etc) of the car that the seller shared with the buyer.

How knowledge about the service history of a car helps the buyer of a used car?

The service history of a used car tells its buyer how much the car is damaged. Also, the service history lists the number of accidents that the car owner has documented. The documentation can be seen in the maintenance history of the car, because the car must be put on maintenance for the repair of the damages on the car due to accidents.

The buyer can use this information to calculate the depreciation value of the car. The buyer can look for the best bargain for the car. Also, they can make a crucial decision whether to buy a particular car in its current condition.

The buyer of a used car can check how many times the car has suffered from accidents from the vehicle history report. The report shows all the documented accidents. When a car suffered from an accident and went through subsequent maintenance for repairing the damages due to the accident, all those accident repairs are mentioned in the maintenance history of vehicle history report.

The buyer of a used car can notice damages other than the damages documented on the vehicle history report. This observation could be a bargaining chip for the buyer.

Conclusion

The RTO vehicle owner details and car service history check also helps the seller. The seller could prove that s/he is the real owner of the car. That is the reason for the owner of the car on sale giving the buyer of the car the reports that she got from CarCheck of AutoHealth. This sharing of reports prevents frauds. Also the owner of the car could bargain for a reasonable price because of the service history of her car.

The buyer gets a fair bargain, too, because they have the reports of car service history. This report prevents frauds as the buyers themselves can check the car's service history. They also feel at ease after paying for the car because they know that they have paid the real owner of the car.

The reports on car service history check and details of the car ownership is beneficial to both the buyer and the seller. Both can use the CarCheck feature of AutoHealth app to get their hands on RTO vehicle owner details and car service history.
