When scrapping a vehicle, most owners worry about one thing more than anything else:
“How do I know my RC is really cancelled?”
This fear is valid.
If RC cancellation is not done properly, your old vehicle could:
- Reappear on the road,
- Be used for illegal activities,
- Generate challans in your name,
- Or worse — be involved in crime.
This is why Carbasket provides complete transparency through two major verification tools:
1️⃣ The Vehicle Scrapping Video
2️⃣ The Chassis Cut Photo/Video Proof
Both of these help you visually confirm that your vehicle is legally dismantled and ready for RC cancellation.
Let’s understand how these two elements protect you and guarantee 100% legal scrapping.
What Is a Scrapping Video and Why It Matters?
A scrapping video is a recorded, timestamped video that shows:
- Your vehicle at the scrapping yard
- Document verification
- Dismantling process
- Chassis marking
- Safe disposal of parts
This gives you complete visibility of what happens to your vehicle after pickup.
✔ Proof that your vehicle reached a licensed yard
✔ Proof that the vehicle was dismantled
✔ Prevents illegal reuse or resale
✔ Mandatory requirement in many states before RC cancellation
✔ Helps validate the Certificate of Vehicle Scrapping (CVS) or CoD
Carbasket provides this video to maintain 100% transparency and ensure customers feel safe and in control.
What Is a Chassis Cut?
A chassis cut is the most important step in scrapping.
It involves physically cutting the chassis number area of the vehicle — the unique identity of every car, bike, or commercial vehicle.
Why is this important?
Once the chassis number is cut, the vehicle:
- Can never legally be used again
- Cannot be registered anywhere
- Cannot be resold or reassembled
- Cannot be used for illegal activities
This is the strongest proof that the vehicle is permanently destroyed.
Carbasket shares photo + video proof of the chassis cut with the customer.
How Scrapping Video + Chassis Cut Help in RC Cancellation
RC cancellation is handled digitally post registration of 2008 through the VAHAN Scrappage Module/before 2007 year vehicle has to submit physically to the concern RTO/RTAs.
But the RTO only cancels the RC after valid proof is submitted.
These two proofs — scrapping video + chassis cut — play a critical role:
1️⃣ Proof of Vehicle Identity
The video shows the chassis number on the vehicle before cutting.
This confirms the correct vehicle is being scrapped.
2️⃣ Proof of Dismantling
The RTO requires evidence that the vehicle has been safely dismantled and can never return to the road.
The video provides this proof.
3️⃣ Proof of Chassis Destruction
The chassis cut video/photo is essential to show the RTO that the vehicle is beyond reuse.
Without this, RC cancellation may be delayed or rejected.
4️⃣ Smooth & Fast RC Cancellation
With proper proof, the RTO updates your RC status to:
“Cancelled Due to Scrapping”
Carbasket then provides you:
- Certificate of Vehicle Scrapping (CVS)
- Certificate of Deposit (CoD)
Both documents serve as legal proof of cancellation and allow tax benefits on new vehicles.
5️⃣ Complete Protection From Liability
Once RC cancellation is done, you are shielded from:
- Future traffic fines
- Misuse of vehicle parts
- Accidents or crime involving your old vehicle
- Unauthorized resale or clone vehicles
