This initiative will significantly advance our Circular Economy efforts, ensuring that cleaner, safer, and more efficient vehicles are on our roads.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Owing to this latest development, several auto majors are likely to offer a 1.5-3.5 percent discount to buyers who are willing to scrap their old vehicles in order to buy a new one, as per the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\/business\/scrapping-old-vehicles-to-buy-new-nitin-gadkari-says-you-can-get-big-discounts-now-101724754553574.html\">report<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Need Of Something More&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are expecting that the government could do something more on the incentives for the scrapping of vehicles, because the scrappage policy is already in place but we have not seen much impact of that,\u201d said Vinod Aggarwal, SIAM president earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding, &#8220;so therefore, to give further boost to the scrapping of old polluting vehicles, I think something needs to be done.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, despite so many efforts by the government, voluntary scrapping of vehicles has not gained pace for several reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of date, around 1.2 lakh vehicles have been scrapped at registered scrapping centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Out of these, 61,000 are government vehicles which are older than 15 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now they have a target to scrap around 90,000 old government vehicles by March 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Considering the process, after the vehicle is scrapped, the buyers can take the certificate and claim the discount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Considering the current system of discounts, it is quite opaque and subject to market demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although, it is yet not clear how the automobile companies intend to ensure that the discount scheme is implemented in a transparent manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.business-standard.com\/industry\/auto\/vehicle-scrappage-policy-key-to-cutting-india-steel-sector-emissions-124010801241_1.html\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Several commercial and passenger vehicle manufacturers will offer discounts for buying new vehicles against the scrapping of older vehicles with a valid Certificate of Deposit, said Nitin Gadkari, the minister of Road Transport &amp; Highways.
