The Risks of Skipping a
Vehicle Legal Report

1

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.

2

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.

3

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.

4

Accident Damage? Major Repairs Await!

A car may look perfect but could have a history of accidents, damages, or unauthorized modifications—leading to huge repair costs later.
