Recommendations and Suggestions -
For the Professionals:
• Target Segment- the target customers whom I suggest Bellad Motors should
concentrate is the advocates, lecturers and petty business men, because they are the
respondents who are keen in buying pre owned cars.
• The target can also be segmented age wise, 25-45 are the most interested
segment in buying a pre owned car.
• Bellad Motors should make an effort to advertise and promote ‘True Value’
through various mediums like news papers, melas and pamphlets.
• Mostly the age group of 25-35 is aware of the Maruti’s True Value concept.
• Family size influences in buying a car is proved through the Chi Square Test,
therefore respondents of the lower income category can also be looked at, for
the sales of the pre owned cars.
• Out of respondents who own pre owned cars, 98% bought it from a Un-
Certified dealer, this shows that people do not prefer buying pre- owned cars from
WWW. BABASAB PATIL FREEPPTMBA.COM 7
8. Analysis of the Pre-owned car market in Hubli for Bellad Motor’s
Maruti True Value
certified dealers, therefore Maruti True Value should make an effort to change this
mind set of the people in Dharwad city.
• When respondents were asked what have they heard of Maruti True Value, the
responses were mostly negative. ‘Price’ was the major issue they have with ‘True
Value’.
• ‘Pre-Owned’ is more of a sophisticated word for the localities; the other petty
dealers have an upper hand on this front, as they use a much simpler and an
easily understood word ‘second hand’. Therefore I suggest that Bellad considers this
point.
• The Bellad showroom is what comes to peoples mind when asked if they have
heard of Maruti ‘True Value’, it is because of the easy view from the highway.
For the students:
• Most of the students want to buy a pre owned car from an un certified dealer,
because of the price factor, therefore when targeting the students category lowering
the price should be considered
• The expected price of the pre owned cars is from Rs 50,000- 75,000.
• The expected age of the car is mostly 3-5 yrs, which the company can consider
these aspects when targeting the students.
• More than 50% of the students are not aware of the True Value concept, which
again calls for advertisements from Bellad Motors.
• 61% of the students get more than Rs 10,000 as their pocket money, this
signifies that it can be assumed the students are from well to do families and Bellad
Motors can use this as a advantage and try perusing them.
• From the personal interaction with the students, the insights gained were, that
the students go to these second hand car melas, and 0% 0f them have known or heard
of True Value conducting melas, therefore I suggest that it be advertised properly.
• The awareness can be spread by using banners and displayed it in front of the
college campus in the most attractive manner.

INDIAN AUTOMOBILE HISTORY
During the 1920s, cars exhibited design refinements such as balloon tires, pressed-
steel wheels, and four-wheel brakes.
In Brief
The origin of automobile is not certain. In this section of automobile history, we will
only discuss about the phases of automobile in the development and modernization
process since the first car was shipped to India. We will start automotive history from
this point of time. The automobile industry has changed the way people live and
work. The earliest of modern cars was manufactured in the year 1895. Shortly the first
appearance of the car followed in India. As the century truned, three cars were
imported in Mumbai (India). Within decade there were total of 1025 cars in the city.
The dawn of automobile actually goes back to 4000 years when the first wheel was
used for transportation in India. In the beginning of 15th century Portuguese arrived in
China and the interaction of the two cultures led to a variety of new technologies,
including the creation of a wheel that turned under its own power. By 1600s small
steam-powered engine models was developed, but it took another century before a
full-sized engine-powered vehicle was created.
The actual horseless carriage was introduced in the year 1893 by brothers Charles and
Frank Duryea. It was the first internal-combustion motor car of America, and it was
followed by Henry Ford's first experimental car that same year. One of the highest-
rated early luxury automobiles was the 1909 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost that featured a
quiet 6-cylinder engine, leather interior, folding windscreens and hood, and an
aluminum body. It was usually driven by chauffeurs and emphasis was on comfort
and style rather than speed. During the 1920s, the cars exhibited design refinements
such as balloon tires, pressed-steel wheels, and four-wheel brakes. Graham Paige DC
Phaeton of 1929 featured an 8-cylinder engine and an aluminum body. The 1937
Pontiac De Luxe sedan had roomy interior and rear-hinged back door that suited more
to the needs of families. In 1930s, vehicles were less boxy and more streamlined than
their predecessors.

Vehicle Production in India
India is the 11th largest Passenger Cars producing countries in the world and 4th
largest in Heavy Trucks Indian Market Analysts are jubilant over the fact that India
has the fastest growing automobile industry (passenger cars segment) in the world
today. This is seen as the result of rapid increase of middle-class population in the
country combined with the government's pro-development policies. The findings of
International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers revealed that in India the
car production had grown to 30% in 2004, thus leading the table, Brazil came a
distant second with the increase of 17%.
Automobile Industry is the largest industry in India with an impressive growth in the
last two decades. The reason behind the growth was abolition of licensing in 1991 and
permitting automatic approval and successive liberalization of the sector. According
to estimation the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of Indian Automobile sales
will grow at 9.5% and will touch a mark of 13,008 million by 2010. The figure for
FY05 was 8.45 million units. To tap this large opportunity, the Indian Auto
Companies along with the global giants have announced huge expansion plans.
Maruti Udyog Ltd. was the largest 4-Wheelers producer in 2005-06 followed by Tata
Motors. Hyundai did well but the difference was nearly half of Tata Motors.

ANALYSIS OF THE CAR MARKET IN INDIA
The automotive industry is one of the largest industries worldwide and in India as
well. The automotive sector drives upstream industries like steel, iron, aluminum,
rubber, plastics, glass and electronics, and downstream industries like advertising &
marketing, transport and insurance.
The automotive industry can be divided into five sectors:
• Passenger Cars
• Multi-Utility Vehicles (MUVs)
• Two-Wheelers
• Three-Wheelers
• Commercial Vehicles-Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs) / Medium & Heavy
Commercial Vehicles (M&HCVs) Tractors
Despite a head start since its beginning in the 1940s, the Indian automotive industry
has been moving at a slow pace mainly due to the all-pervasive regulatory atmosphere
prevailing till recently. Moreover, the industry was considered low-priority as cars
were thought of as unaffordable luxury for the masses.
In the post-liberalization period the passenger car sector witnessed a boom, owing to
economic vibrancy, changes in government policies, increase in purchasing power,
improvement in lifestyles, and availability of car finance. The industry was
deregulated in 1993, and many companies, both Indian and foreign (Daewoo, Ford,
General Motors, and DaimlerChrysler), entered the market. However, the smooth
sailing was disrupted in the last quarter of 1996. The automotive industry, which
WWW. BABASAB PATIL FREEPPTMBA.COM 17
18. Analysis of the Pre-owned car market in Hubli for Bellad Motor’s
Maruti True Value
contributed substantially to the industrial growth in FY1996 failed to maintain the
same momentum between FY1997 and FY1999. The overall slowdown in the
economy and the resultant slowdown in industrial production, political uncertainty
and inadequate infrastructure development were some of the factors responsible for
the slowdown in the automotive industry.
While the passenger car segment, with the launch of many new models, posted
positive growth rates in FY 2000 and FY 2001, the upturn was rather brief. In
FY2002, the automotive sector especially the passenger car segment continued to reel
under the pressure of over-capacity with low demand. FY2003 witnessed a healthy
growth in the passenger car sales with the pick up in the economy. The passenger car
sales in the first half of FY2004 were also buoyant.
However, the contribution of the automobile sector to industrial output, number of
cars per person, automobile sector employment as a percentage of industrial
employment, number of months' income required to purchase a car, and penetration of
cars are quite low. Low demand and lack of vision on the part of the OEMs and
policymakers stunted the Indian automobile industry. However, major car
manufacturers worldwide foresee future demand in India. The regulatory environment
has been liberalized and demand has picked up. Global OEMs who enjoy scale
economics both in terms of manufacturing and research and development have
entered the Indian market, leading to a shift in the business operations of suppliers,
assemblers and marketers.
Key Demand Drivers
Disposable income was perceived as the key factor driving passenger car demand. But
over time, other factors included the need for greater mobility, non-availability of
public transport services, availability of cheap finance, development of the used-car

market, introduction of new technologically superior models, increasing levels of
urbanization, and changing consumer profiles.
Market Characteristics
Product Penetration
The penetration of passenger cars in India stood at five per thousand persons as
against 27 for two-wheelers in 2000. Significantly, the Indian figures are lower than
even those for economies like Indonesia (14 and 62). The relatively high penetration
of two-wheelers in India reflects the population's need for mobility and their limited
affordability.

Considering that affordability is the most important demand driver in India, the
domestic car market has been segmented on the basis of vehicle price till SIAM
introduced the length-based2 classification of passenger cars since FY2003. The
automobile industry in India is still concentrated around the mini and the compact
segments which together account for around 81.8% of the automobile market in terms
of units sold in FY2003.

Increased affluence, wider selection and the ready availability of car loans is driving
the Indian car market through the roof. During the last five years (2000-05), the
production of passenger cars in India increased by more than 100 per cent. India
achieved the sales of 1.11 million vehicles last year (2005).
Domestic sales have been growing at a clipping pace:
• Passenger car sales rose by 22.84 per cent during April-September 2006,
compared to the corresponding period n 2005.

Industry analysis using porters five force:
Porters “five force of competition” model views the profitability of an industry as
determined by the five source of competition pressure. Theses five force of
competition include three source of “Horizontal” competition – competition from
substitute, the threat of competition from entrants, and competition from established
producers – and two source of “vertical” competition – the bargaining power of
suppliers and buyers. The following write-up is a view of the Indian passenger car
industry from these five angles leading to the expected changes in the coming years in
the underlying structure of the Indian passenger car industry.
Competition from substitute
Inadequate Public Transportation System: In developed nations city planners
have tried to relieve congestion and pollution by creating an efficient public
transportation system. However, they have been remarkably ineffective in
encouraging motorists to forsake their cars for buses or subway. The public
transportation system in India is not only extremely inadequate, it is notably poor in
quality. This scenario is not expected to change drastically in the next ten years.
Electric cars: All the major car manufacturers in the world are currently
developing electric cars or hybrid cars to reduce pollution in the coming years.
However, these technologies wll requires considerable length of time to become
commercially feasible in developing nations.
The lack of inadequate public transportation system coupled with the fact that the
electric or hybrid cars are still in the developmental stage means that the Indian car
industry faces minimal competition from substitutes.
Treat of new entrants
Economies of scale: in the automobile industry, economies of scale act as a
significant entry barrier since it is a capital-intensive industry. Globally, it has been
WWW. BABASAB PATIL FREEPPTMBA.COM 25
26. Analysis of the Pre-owned car market in Hubli for Bellad Motor’s
Maruti True Value
witnessed that car manufacturers with low volumes find it extremely difficult to
survive given the high per unit cost. The acquisition of Rolls Royce, Jagur, Rover, and
AMC/jeep are a testament to this. On the other hand by entering on a large scale, one
runs the risk of drastic under-utilization of capacity as observed by Daewoo’s
experience in India. Since the economy segment cars are expected to drive volume
growth in India in the coming years, it is extremely important for a manufacturer to
have a model in this segment to reduce his per unit cost.
Government policy: the license-raj of the Indian government toll 1991 acted as
a significant barrier for any new entrants in the passenger car industry. Moreover, the
government’s perception of the car being a “luxury “rather than a modern “necessity’
resulted in this sector being labeled as “low priority.” However, the liberalization of
the Indian economy has removed this hindrance.
huge capital Costs: Huge capital Cost act as significant entry barrier and only
established companies with deep pockets possess the resources to enter the
automobile industry. Significant costs are involved in the development of a new car as
can be seen by Telco’s Indica car which has incurred an expenditure of Rs.17 bn.
Absolute cost Advantages: Maruti’s presence in the car industry since 1984
gives it considerable cost advantage over the new entrants. Not only are its plants
highly depreciated and its cars highly indigenized as compared to its competitors, it
has a wide distribution and service network which will require mammoth resource to
replicate.

Although liberalization of the Indian economy has reduced the impact of government
policy as an entry barrier, the car industry still enjoy high entry barriers due to huge
capital costs involved in setting up efficient plants and numerous cost advantages
enjoyed by Maruti. The recent pull-out of Peugeot is an example that even a global
automobile company could find it extremely difficult to operate in India if it faces
labor trouble and Rivalry between Established competitors.

27. Analysis of the Pre-owned car market in Hubli for Bellad Motor’s
Maruti True Value
Highly Concentrated Industry : The Indian car industry is highly
concentrated with Maruti itself accounting for about 80% of all sales. The lack of
competition in the economy segment to Maruti 800 has given the company
considerable power. Its dominance in this segment gives it the power to cross
subsidize its models in the other segment. However, this scenario is expected to
change drastically over the next three years with a number of new models being
launched to challenge maruti 800s dominance the scenario in the economy segment
could be similar to that in the premium segment currently with intense price
competition. The slashing of cielo`s price by 25%has led to ford and opel introducing
cheaper models
Diversity of competitors: 1984 and 1993 have been land mark years for the
Indian car industry. The entry of Maruti in 1984 changed the complexion of the
industry as for the first time Indian had opportunity a buy a car which was comparable
to the Japanese automobile. 1993 was a historic year as the industry was deregulated
an India become the latest battlefield for global auto majors. The last few years have
seen the industry integrate with global automobile industry and evolve into being
extremely competitive. For the first time, Maruti’s position as the leader of the car
industry will be severally challenged especially if three new cars (Tata Indica,
Daewoo, D’Art, and Hyundai Santro) in the economy segment can deliver the
promised performance.
Product differentiation: One of the key trends observed in the car industry
during the last decade is that the products of different companies have become
increasingly similar especially in the economy and mid-size segment. There is a
perceptible shift towards “car” being treated as a commodity rather than as a
consumer good. In the premium car segment in India, differentiation between
different models is declining as companies strive to increase volumes by cutting
prices. Even Opel Astra has decided to introduced a new model without any frills to
reduced its prices by Rs.10 million.
Increase in Working Capital Needs: The intense rivalry between the
automobile companies will mean that the companies would have to give longer credit
periods to its dealers. The substantial over-capacity in the industry will lead to
WWW. BABASAB PATIL FREEPPTMBA.COM 27
28. Analysis of the Pre-owned car market in Hubli for Bellad Motor’s
Maruti True Value
increased inventory holding. These two factors point towards an increase in working
capital needs of car companies.
The competition between firms in the car industry is expected the intensify
considerable as never companies will start reducing Maruti’s dominance of the market
the expected significant over-capacity in the industry, increasing working capital
needs, and high exit barriers coupled with low differentiation between models
especially in the economy segment will put downward pressure on price and
profitability of companies.
Bargaining power of Buyers
• Buyers price Sensitive: Car buyers in India are extremely price-sensitive
especially in the economy segment. Although it is too early to judge the three new
small cars and Maruti response to it, we can expect the price competition to intensify
since buyers would e more willing to switch while intense competition among the
companies would require them to generate volumes.
• Relative bargaining power : Gone are the days when the India car buyer had
to buy one of the 30,000 Ambassadors or Fiate, which were produced. The
penetration of satellite television has globalized the Indian customer. Car companies
have seen forced to revamp their dealer network. From a small shed for a dealership,
the shift is towards huge dealership who not only offer complete range of services for
the car but also make sure that the customer has a replacement vehicle so that they
may not become immobile.
• Availability of Easy financing: the entry of numerous car companies has
brought along with it a massive increase in the availability of cheap finance for the
Indian consumer. This hassled to fierce competition among the car companies and has
even led to free gifts being doled out to buyers to lure them to purchase a particular
car.
Bargaining Power of Suppliers
Diminishing Supplier Power : one of the key trends observed in the global auto
industry is the significant increase in outsourcing of car parts. In India, the
development of the auto ancillary industry has also brought in this phenomenon.
WWW. BABASAB PATIL FREEPPTMBA.COM 28
29. Analysis of the Pre-owned car market in Hubli for Bellad Motor’s
Maruti True Value
However, the large number of competitors for supplying each part implies that in the
coming years, supplier power will diminish to a large extent except for suppliers who
have almost monopolistic power like Mico-Bosch. Also, there is a increasing shift
towards reduction in vendor base for a company which means that the chosen
suppliers also have to make substantial financial investments to enhance the quality of
their products.
Supplier power in the automobile industry will diminish greatly in the coming years
due to the large number of competing supplier, threat of cheaper and better-quality
imports, and an increasing trend towards reduction of a car company’s vendor base.
Conclusion
Although it is possible to predict with some confidence the qualitative impact of
individual structural changes, there are difficulties, first in predicting the quantitative
impact of structural changes, and second, in predicting the aggregate effect of
simultaneous structural changes that have conflicting effect n probability. The Indian
car industry is still in a nascent stage. The economy car segment acconts for the
majority of the cars sold. However, as the economy picks up stream again and the
Indian market matures, the car industry will also climb up the learning curve. The
industry has virtually no competition from substitute at next decade. High entry
barrier due to high capital costs is also a positive indicator for the existing car
manufacturers. However, the intense competition between firms and increasing
bargaining power of the buyers indicate towards intensifying competition ad
competition and depressing profitability. It will also lead to an increasing need of
working capital for these companies who will e faced with longer credit periods and
higher inventory holdings. However, given the low motorization in India and
increasing per capita incomes, the potential exists for the Indian car industry to
increase profitability y generating significant volumes and reducing manufacturing
costs. Significant opportunities exist for players to spot gaps in the market and cater to
particular niche markets like sports utility vehicles and minivans. The diminishing
power of the supplier industry will help the industry in improving the quality of car
components and getting longer payment periods. The key to success in the Indian car
market will be offering good quality cars that offer value for money, run innovative
marketing campaigns to attract potential buyers, and offer excellent after sales

service. Companies, which have a range of vehicles in all the segments of the market
like Maruti, will be at a significant advantage due to their ability to cross-subsidize

Manufacturing process
The body panel and engine constitute a major portion of the total cost of car
manufacture. A typical cost structure for car is as given below.
Parts/assembly % of total cost
Glass 5
Brakes/wheels/tyres 6
Interiors 7
Transmission system 8

Car manufacturing is basically assembly of components procured from ancillaries or
auto component manufacturers. Nearly 80% of auto components are outsourced by
the car manufacturers. This helps in reducing the capital cost needed to setup a car
manufacturing plant.

• Cumulative export sales crossing the 2.5 lakh mark, far more than any car
company in the country.
Local market trends
• Sales, particularly in the small car segment, will drive passenger car sales in
the near in term. However, within the next two years , capacity is expected to be twice
the total demand for cars.
• With developments in the small car segment acquiring a degree of stability in
terms of price competition, the action is shifting to the mid-size car segment. sales in
this segment will pick up as new models come in and income levels rise but it is still
some times till it comes anywhere close to the economy sized segment.
• What will also drive car sales is the wide availability of finance schemes by a
variety of banks and FI’s.
• Sales in the used car market is also expected to do well as more an dmore
older models get replaced by newer ones at a faster pace. The coming in of Euro 3 and
4 norms will also increase scrappage rates.
• In view of expected surplus in the domestic market, India will emerge as one
of the leading car sourcing point in the Indian subcontinent.
• Consumers will be the beneficiaries as a result of marketing war, as they will
be offerd technologically superior products at better price and terms and conditions.
But the customer has a risk of model discontinuation as a result of shake-out expected
in the industry.
• India offers a releatively low cast production base and is strategically
positioned as a launching base for third country export to Asia-pacific and European
markets
• Growth in road transport, increasing urbanization and privatization of public
transport will into growing demand for commercial vechile which is sited to reach
three hundred thousand by 2001, growth of disposable incomes will push up demand
for two-wheelers to 4.5 million, of three-wheelers to 250 thousand and of passenger
car to 420 thousand over the same time span.

OVERVIEW OF THE INDIAN SECOND HAND CAR MARKET
The pre-owned, or used, car market continues to be fragmented and unorganized.
Despite the rapid growth of the organized used-car dealers and manufacturer-owned
pre-owned car outlets, the market for old vehicles continues to be dominated by
individuals trying to sell and buy cars.
However, the pre-owned vehicles market is likely to mature as the car ownership base
grows. The scorching pace at which the new car market has grown this fiscal and the
growth projections for the next are indicators of the potential growth of the used-car
market in the next few years.
Further, in addition to the number of two-wheeler owners who are looking to buy
a car, the number of existing small-car owners hoping to upgrade to a three-box
(sedan) car will progressively drive used-car sales in the two critical B and C
segments. The C segment (particularly entry-level) used car sales are expected to
witness the kind of sales boom that B segment used cars saw over the past two
years.
Organized market imminent
Company-owned used-car outlet and increased demand for certified used cars are
likely to become the dominant themes. It is evident, from the surge in the number of
car manufacturers entering the pre-owned cars business, that the used car market is
getting increasingly attractive, both in terms of its potential to generate sales volumes
and higher margins. For the car-maker, the organized used-car business also throws
WWW. BABASAB PATIL FREEPPTMBA.COM 46
47. Analysis of the Pre-owned car market in Hubli for Bellad Motor’s
Maruti True Value
up the possibility of better using the dealer-cum-service outlet's vehicle servicing
capacity.
The manufacturer-sponsored pre-owned car business has seen entrants such as the
car market leader Maruti Udyog, with its Maruti True Value brand, Ford India,
with its Ford Assured, and Hyundai with its Hyundai Exchange brand. After
starting out in a small way amongst their dealerships, many of these
manufacturers are now actively involved in streamlining their used-car
operations.
Better place to shop
For the used-car buyer, the manufacturer-sponsored outlet is much better place to go
shopping. In addition to being able to buy a certified car at a fair price, these outlets
will also ensure that the paper work is right, throw in a couple of free services, offer
an extension of warranty at times, help with the transfer of the vehicle's ownership
and complete formalities at the regional transport office (RTO).
A certified used car, including the charges for inspection and certification, is usually
priced 5-10 per cent more than a similar used car in the unorganized segment. Despite
the higher cost, for the average first-time car buyer, a certified car is the better option.
In the absence of any organized car history services being offered by independent
consultants and a more transparent vehicle insurance system, getting background
information about the previous owner and the used-car is extremely difficult for
buyers looking for a deal.
Used-Car Buyer Behavior :
However, used-car buyers continue to be hesitant to shop for their cars at
manufacturer-sponsored outlets.
A recent study about the resale value of cars in India conducted by NFO Automotive,
part of the NFO World Group, threw up interesting points. Some of the key findings
of NFO Automotives inaugural 2003 India Used-Car Buyer Study (UCBS) were:
WWW. BABASAB PATIL FREEPPTMBA.COM 47
48. Analysis of the Pre-owned car market in Hubli for Bellad Motor’s
Maruti True Value
• Very few Indian buyers pay for an expert to evaluate the vehicles; most rely on
their personal mechanics and friends.
• Low reliance on vehicle financing at 20 per cent compared to nearly 65 to 70 per
cent for new car buyers.
• Word-of-mouth, classified advertisements, and used-car brokers are the key
sources of deciding brand and price, with the Internet and manufacturer-backed
sources playing only a limited role.
• Lack of shopping - over 60 per cent owners are pre-determined in their used-car
model choice and do not shop around.
• The age of car (model year) and kilometers on the vehicle are the top evaluation
criteria. The degree of importance attached to accident history, ownership transfers,
and service/ parts availability is relatively lower.
Used-car finance
More than two-thirds of all new cars sold are part financed through auto loans. Intense
competition, reliable retailing channels and cross-subsidization of the financier's
interest costs by the vehicle manufacturer have brought down interest rates for new
cars dramatically during the last two years. However, the interest rates for financing
used-cars continue to be uncompetitive.
The interest rate for financing of new cars ranges between 7 per cent and 11 per cent
on a reducing balance basis depending on manufacturer and model. On the other
hand, interest rates on used cars range from 14 to 19 per cent, close to the rates for a
personal loan.
The interest rates for certified cars being offered by manufacturer-sponsored outlets
are usually lower than financing for used-cars bought from the open market.
This again is largely due to the higher reliability factor and, in some cases, to some
kind of preferred financing arrangement the manufacturer has with the financier.
More reliable experience-

Maruti True Value
Overall, the process of buying a used-car can be fruitful and risk-free, if you take the
necessary precautions (refer accompanying story) and opt for buying a certified car.
With the increased presence of the organized used-car dealer, the rate of growth in the
pre-owned car market is likely to outstrip new car sales.
Though a more market-friendly interest rate, which is on a par with the prevailing
rates for new cars, will continue to elude used-car financing, at least the differential
between the two rates are expected to gradually narrow. This is likely to happen after
the reliability factor goes up in the used- car market.
Tip sheet
Buyers
Check out these following aspects before closing a deal:
• If you are on a tight budget and plan to buy an entry-level car in any of the
segments, a used-car may not always be the best option to upgrade to the higher
segment. Instead, you may opt for a new car in the lower segment.
• If you do decide to upgrade to a bigger, higher segment used-car, then you
have to be ready for accelerated depreciation post-purchase and uncompetitive interest
rates, if you are part financing the buy.
• It is better to go in for a certified used-car rather than trusting the judgment
of your neighbourhood mechanic.
• Check the used-car seller's insurance records for the car's claims (accident)
history, if any.
• Avoid cars that have had more than one previous owner.
• A used-car owner who has been meticulous with the car's paper work and
maintains an exhaustive log of repairs, oil change, service will, in all probability, have
been meticulous with the car too.

Maruti True Value
• If you are confident of about your own assessment skills and feel that you
can do the job of scouting for a used-car better, then the pointers given in the box
alongside may be of help.
Sellers
Here are a few pointers that can be of use when you decide to sell
your car:
• Selling your car through a used-car dealer may be a better option than
attempting it yourself, despite the commission that you have to fork out to the dealer.
• It will also still be worth it, especially if your car is more than three/four years
old, to get the vehicle used-car certified by an authorized car dealer or certifying
agency.
• Passenger car manufacturers are nowadays offering attractive loyalty bonuses
and exchange plans for programmes for existing car owners to upgrade or switch to a
new car. But if your car is not more than three years old, it may still fetch a better
price in the open market. So, sell that car yourself and talk down the price of the new
one with the dealer. You will win both ways.
• Go to the used-car market with realistic expectations. Remember if your car
has had crashes in the past, no matter how well it has been restored, its resale value
will have dropped never be the same.
• If you have avoided frivolous repairs and the subsequent insurance claims
from your auto insurance company, or if your car has had an accident-free history,
then, do not forget to transfer the no-claims bonus from the used car's insurance
policy to the insurance cover for the new car. You can transfer almost half of your no-
claims bonus and help shave off a large chunk of the premium payable on the new
car.
