Used Taxis & Commercial Vehicles for Sale in Kolkata
Kolkata's taxi market is changing faster than any other city in India. The iconic yellow Ambassador taxis that defined the city for decades are being phased out as they age past permit limits, and drivers are switching to app-cab ready hatchbacks and sedans for Ola, Uber and no-refusal cab duty. That shift means real opportunity for buyers and sellers alike. Buy Sell Taxi lists verified used taxis, app-cab vehicles, CNG cars and mini vans from sellers across Kolkata, Howrah, Salt Lake and Durgapur. Whether you're replacing a retiring yellow cab, buying your first commercial vehicle for airport (CCU) and Howrah or Sealdah station duty, or expanding a small fleet, you'll find transparent prices and direct seller contact here. Commercial vehicle trading in Kolkata has traditionally centred around areas like Mallick Bazar — Buy Sell Taxi brings that same market online with photos, documents and verified sellers, so you can compare options before stepping out.

Frequently Asked Questions – Taxis in Kolkata
Where can I buy a used taxi in Kolkata?
Buy Sell Taxi is the go-to marketplace for used taxis in Kolkata. Find verified listings of yellow cabs, app-cab vehicles and commercial vehicles from sellers across Kolkata, Howrah and the wider West Bengal region — the online alternative to hunting through Mallick Bazar and local dealer lanes.
Can I still buy a yellow Ambassador taxi in Kolkata?
Yellow Ambassador taxis are being phased out as older vehicles cross the age limit for commercial permits, so supply is shrinking. Some are still listed by sellers, but most buyers now choose app-cab ready hatchbacks and sedans that qualify for fresh permits and app-cab platforms.
What replaces the yellow taxi in Kolkata?
App-cab ready hatchbacks and sedans like the Wagon R, Swift Dzire, Tata Tigor and Hyundai Xcent have become the workhorses of Kolkata's taxi trade. They run on Ola, Uber and no-refusal cab duty, cost less to maintain than an old Ambassador, and are widely available on Buy Sell Taxi.
Is CNG available for taxis in Kolkata?
Yes, and it's growing. West Bengal is expanding its CNG station network across Kolkata, Howrah and along key highways, and CNG-fitted taxis are increasingly popular for their lower running costs. You'll find CNG and factory-fitted dual-fuel taxis listed on Buy Sell Taxi.
What permit do I need for app-cab work in Kolkata?
You need a commercial registration with a contract carriage permit issued by the West Bengal transport department, plus the vehicle must meet the age and fitness norms of the app platform you drive for. Check that any vehicle you buy has valid commercial registration, fitness certificate and permit before payment.
What is the typical price range for a used taxi in Kolkata?
Used taxis in Kolkata typically range from ₹1.5 lakh for older models to ₹10 lakh for newer app-cab ready vehicles depending on make, model, year and condition. Airport and station duty vehicles in good condition command higher prices.
