An End-of-Life Vehicle (ELV) is a vehicle that has reached the end of its useful life. This includes:

• Vehicles that are no longer validly registered

• Vehicles declared unfit by an Automated Fitness Centre

• Vehicles with cancelled registration by court order

• Vehicles voluntarily declared as waste by the owner

Scrapping through a government-authorised RVSF ensures safe, eco-friendly disposal of your ELV, in line with the Vehicle Scrappage Policy. It also helps avoid illegal practices, ensures proper recycling, and allows you to receive exclusive incentives on your next new vehicle purchase.

Improper handling of ELVs can lead to environmental pollution due to leakage of hazardous substances such as batteries, engine fluids, and refrigerants. These can contaminate soil and groundwater and harm public health if not managed through authorised facilities.

For the registered owner, you need:

• Original Registration Certificate (RC)
• PAN Card
• KYC documents (Aadhar, Passport, or Voter ID)
• Address proof
• Bank details
• Loan Closure Certificate/NOC (if applicable)

If the registered owner is not present, an Authorisation Certificate and ownership proof are mandatory.
