Vehicle Verification API allows you to fetch real-time details of any registered vehicle in India using the vehicle number (e.g., DL8CAF1234). This is done through integration with VAHAN – Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) database.
It is widely used in:
- Fintech & loan platforms (for asset verification)
- Insurance companies
- Second-hand car/bike marketplaces
- Courier & delivery companies
- Digital service portals & KYC platforms
