Now there is a marketplace to buy and sell pre-owned taxis in India

New Delhi : The central character of many journeys, stories and experiences, Indian taxis are one of the most familiar sights on urban roads.

With its latest category, 'Taxis', pioneering online automobile transactional marketplace, Droom, has ensured a new lease of life to these iconic vehicles by enabling buyers and sellers of used taxis to transact over the platform.

These pre-owned taxis will be available at a starting price range of Rs. 1,00,000, and upwards.

Sellers and buyers can easily obtain the fair prices of these vehicles with the help of Orange Book Value (OBV) and can also order the Droom ECO certified inspection report to get the better idea about the condition of the vehicle.

The used taxis can be bought and sold by buyers and sellers pan-India.

"Droom is the largest online automobile platform in India and we endeavor to add every possible automobile related category to provide the widest collection of vehicles as per buyer needs. We received a lot of queries from interested buyers for used taxis, hence we decided to include such vehicles in our list of offerings," said founder and CEO, Droom, Sandeep Aggarwal.

"Additionally, pre-owned taxis further diversifies our product type and adds a unique dimension to the burgeoning vehicle listings on our platform, thus enabling us to reach out to newer clients and markets," Aggarwal added.

Although Droom currently sells such taxis only to individual dealers and sellers through its B2C and C2C operations, it aims to tie up with large taxi aggregators and local taxi vendors in near future.

The online platform with its unique ecosystem services tools, quality vehicles and focused marketing efforts has amassed a huge client base over the last few years, and the addition of used taxis is set to further strengthen its stance as India's premier online marketplace for buying and selling automobiles.
