The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways launches the Voluntary Vehicle Modernization Program or Vehicle Scrapping Policy

The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has launched the Voluntary Vehicle Modernization Program or Vehicle Scrapping Policy to create an ecosystem for phasing out unfit polluting vehicles across the country through a network of Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facilities (RVSFs) and Automated Testing Stations (ATSs). Presently, there are sixty-plus (60+) RVSFs across 17 States / UTs and seventy-five (75+) ATSs across 12 States / UTs operational in the country with many more in the pipeline.

To promote the scrapping of privately owned Commercial & Passenger Vehicles and replace the old polluting fleet with the less polluting newer fleet, commercial vehicle and passenger vehicle manufacturers have shown a willingness to offer discounts for a limited period of two years and one year respectively.

These discounts will further incentivize scrapping of End-of-Life Vehicles, thereby ensuring plying of safer, cleaner and efficient vehicles on the roads.
