The Risks of Skipping a
Vehicle Legal Report
Pending Challans? You Pay the Fine!
Traffic violations stay linked to the vehicle—not the owner. If there are unpaid challans, you’ll be legally responsible after purchase.
Stolen Vehicle? Say Goodbye to Your Money!
Thousands of stolen cars get resold in India each year. If your car is flagged as stolen, it could be seized by authorities.
Outstanding Loan? You Inherit the Debt!
Many sellers don’t disclose if a vehicle is still under a loan (hypothecation). If you buy without checking, banks can hold you liable.
