About Cars24

We have a simple solution to the most complex problem that a car owner faces - selling his/ her car - and our solution is deeply rooted in technology which is why it works.Execution is our game and we are killing it! At present, we trade a couple thousand cars every month, making us by far the most significant and largest player in the used car industry. Guess what We are the fastest growing young business out of India in the last one and a half year - all of it while still being in stealth mode! With 100 + branches across 20+major cities in India, we are scaling up rapidly and are on the road to profitability.
