Scrap Your EV Legally with CarBasket

Electric Vehicles (EVs) are the future of mobility in India, with increasing adoption driven by government incentives, expanding charging infrastructure, and new EV models. Like conventional petrol and diesel vehicles, EVs eventually reach their end-of-life (ELV) stage due to battery degradation, accident damage, or age.


When you scrap your EV with us, you will receive a Certificate of Destruction (CoD) along with supporting documents, which can be used by the vehicle owner to complete RTO deregistration and, if applicable, claim government incentives for purchasing a new EV or vehicle.

Why EV Scrapping is Different from Regular Vehicle Scrapping

Why EV Scrapping is Different from Regular Vehicle Scrapping

Scrapping an EV is not the same as scrapping a petrol or diesel vehicle. Electric Vehicles come with lithium-ion batteries, electric motors, and high-voltage wiring that require specialized handling. If not disposed of properly, these components can harm the environment and even cause safety hazards.

CarBasket partners with authorized/licenced scrapping facilities that follow eco-friendly recycling processes, ensuring safe disposal of:

  • Lithium-ion batteries (repurposed or recycled safely)
  • Electric motors & controllers
  • Electronic parts & sensors
  • Metal body & chassis
  • Plastic, glass, and interior parts

By scrapping your EV with us, you contribute to the circular economy and ensure your vehicle’s harmful components do not end up polluting the soil or water.

  • Battery & Component Handling – Lithium-ion battery and electrical parts are removed safely.
  • Dismantling & Recycling – Vehicle is dismantled, metals are recycled, and non-reusable parts are disposed of responsibly.

Documents Required for EV (Electric Vehicle) Scrapping
