The government is aiming to bring organised players in the scrapping value chain, primarily to ensure environment-friendly dismantling of end-of-life vehicles and institute a circular economy in the automobile sector.
According to information given by the Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways in a written reply to a question in Lok Sabha on 24 March 2022, there are nine vehicle scrapping centres functional in the formal sector. Eight of them are located in Delhi and one is in Chennai.
These centres are in the process of obtaining authorisation as per the Motor Vehicles (Registration and Functions of Vehicle Scrapping Facility) Rules, 2021.
