If your car has crossed 15 years, failed its fitness test, or is beyond repair, you can’t just hand the keys to any scrap dealer. India’s scrappage rules require vehicle scrapping to happen at a government-Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facility (RVSF) – not the neighbourhood kabadi yard. An unregistered dealer can’t cancel your RC or issue a Certificate of Deposit, leaving you exposed if the chassis number resurfaces in a police record years later.
Punjab has only a handful of dedicated RVSFs, so owners often choose between facilities in-state and a few serving the wider Chandigarh–Haryana belt. Here’s an honest look at seven of them.
Top 7 Vehicle Scrapping Companies in Punjab
These are RVSFs either based in Punjab or close enough to regularly serve Punjab vehicle owners.
1. Global Scrappage Yards
Based in Derabassi, Mohali district, serving Ludhiana, Patiala, Chandigarh, Jalandhar, Amritsar, and the wider Punjab–Haryana–Himachal belt. Unlike facilities built around industrial-scale shredding, this one is structured around individual owners:
- Free doorstep pickup, running or not
- Transparent weighing at the yard
- Instant CoD generated through the government portal the same day
- RC cancellation and documentation handled in-house

Before You Hand Over the Keys
- Ask for the RVSF’s registration number and cross-check it – don’t take “we’re authorised” on trust.
- Get the CoD before you leave the yard, not “by courier next week.”
- Photograph the odometer and chassis number yourself beforehand.
- Remove FASTag, personal documents, dashcam, or GPS device before handover.
- Confirm whether the quoted price already includes the tax rebate – the two are sometimes bundled to sound more generous than they are.
- RC cancellation isn’t automatic once cash changes hands – it still has to be filed with the RTO.
- A handwritten “certificate” isn’t a real CoD – only one from an RVSF listed on the government portal counts toward a tax rebate.
What This Actually Costs People
The most common problem isn’t price per kilo – it’s owners finding out months later the RC was never cancelled because the paperwork was never filed with the RTO. Without that filing, the CoD isn’t valid and the tax rebate never gets claimed. Confirm this before anything else, whichever facility you choose.
Beyond paperwork, proper recycling means hazardous fluids are handled safely instead of leaching into soil and groundwater – the reason old vehicles go through registered facilities at all.

FAQs
1. What is an RVSF, and why does it matter?
A facility licensed under India’s 2021 scrapping rules to legally dismantle vehicles and issue a Certificate of Deposit. Only a CD from an RVSF counts toward RC cancellation and tax rebates.

Up to 25% tax rebate for non-transport vehicles, 15% for transport vehicles, plus manufacturer discounts up to 5% against a valid CoD.
3. What documents do I need?
RC copy, owner’s Aadhaar and PAN, a recent photo of the vehicle, insurance copy if applicable, and a financer’s NOC if there’s an active loan.
4. Can I scrap a vehicle that doesn’t run or is missing parts?
Yes – authorised RVSFs, including Global Scrappage Yards, accept non-running, accident-damaged, and incomplete vehicles.
5. How long does the process take?
Typically a few days from pickup to payment and certificate issuance, once documentation is verified.
