Cred, a leading financial technology platform, has unveiled a new car valuation and resale feature within its ‘Cred garage’ vehicle management service, which allows its members to easily determine their car's value and facilitate its sale, streamlining a traditionally cumbersome process.

The service has been developed in partnership with used car platforms Cars24 and Spinny, which enables new functionality for instant car valuations, free doorstep inspections and swift payments upon sale completion. A key focus of the new feature is privacy, with member information remaining secure and private until they actively opt to proceed with an inspection.

The service aims to provide a convenient and transparent way for members to assess their car's market value without the need to visit multiple dealerships or endure unsolicited sales calls. Whether a member is planning to sell, comparing offers or simply curious about their car's current worth, the feature leverages data from two of India's leading digital resale platforms to provide quick and reliable insights. It also serves as a valuable tool for cross-referencing quotes received from offline dealers, ensuring members secure a fair price for their vehicle.

How it works

Cred members can instantly access their car's estimated value within Cred garage, a feature already used by over 7 million members to manage their vehicles. By answering a few straightforward questions, they receive a detailed valuation.

Should they decide to sell, members can schedule a complimentary home inspection at their convenience. The process is designed to be hassle-free, with no extensive paperwork required from the member. Once the vehicle is inspected and an offer is accepted, the partner platforms manage the entire resale process, including the crucial step of ownership transfer.

Member information is only shared with partners if an inspection is booked. Until then, all data remains securely with Cred, preventing any unsolicited calls or messages from dealers. Additionally, Cred garage will continue to provide members with helpful tips on maintaining their vehicles, potentially enhancing their car's resale value in the future.

Akshay Aedula, Product and Growth at Cred, said, “Cred members already manage their vehicles with discipline – tracking challans, renewing insurance, maintaining compliance. By enabling valuation, inspection and resale, we’re closing the loop: turning responsible ownership into real value by making the final step in vehicle management frictionless, secure and in members’ control. This feature is aimed at creating a car resale premium experience in line with the high-value vehicles that members own and enable them to get better value when they upgrade.”

The expansion of Cred garage builds on its existing suite of services, which includes managing challans, renewing pollution certificates, insurance, and FASTag – all from a single platform. Over the past year, more than 2.4 million members have utilised the service to identify pending challans and 5.3 million have received alerts about expiring pollution certificates. With 37 percent of members managing more than one vehicle, this new feature adds significant value to Cred garage.

Cred members constitute a substantial portion of India’s privately owned vehicle demographic. This new feature aims to make car valuation and resale an organised, efficient and spam-free extension of responsible car ownership.

Gajendra Jangid, Co-Founder and CMO, Cars24, said, “At Cars24, we have rebuilt the car-selling experience from the ground up. What was once a slow and unpredictable process is now instant, transparent and fully online. From pricing to paperwork, every step has been simplified to work without friction. This partnership allows us to extend that experience to more people, in a moment that really matters. If we can help someone close a chapter faster and start the next one with clarity, that is a win we deeply care about.”

Maruti Suzuki India, the country's largest passenger vehicle manufacturer, has announced its wholesales for September 2025 and Q2 FY2026.  

The company sold 132,820 vehicles in September, which was down 8 percent, as compared to 144,962 units sold for the same period last year. The major decline in sales was witnessed in its mini (-30%) and SUV portfolio (-21%), while the compact segment grew by 11 percent.
