The pre-owned segment was highly occupied by conservative and unreliable trade practices. Shriram Automall turned to be a game changer and removed every layer of this opaque system and served its customers with a completely transparent platform. We are delighted to complete 6 glorious years of existence and to provide multiple bidding platforms for used vehicles & equipment in an organised manner.”

Through our exceptionally professional services, we have been transforming lives of many and have successfully helped a driver to become a proud owner of a vehicle/equipment, an employee to an entrepreneur, as we paved the way for them to start something new, something big. Looking back at our 6 years of growth, we not only see a number of accomplishments but also the enthusiasm and hard work our employees devoted for our customers, which resulted in their complete trust on us.”
