Buying a Used Taxi in India

Buying a used taxi is a different decision from buying a used car. You are buying an earning asset, so what matters is not the badge but the running cost per kilometre, how long the permit and fitness have left, and whether the model has the resale demand to get your money back when you upgrade. A commercial car that looks tired can still be the better buy if its papers are clean and its running costs are low.

Every listing on Buy Sell Taxi is a commercial vehicle sold by a verified seller, with photos, the asking price and document status visible before you contact anyone. Use the filters to narrow by category, fuel type, brand, budget and city — CNG hatchbacks and sedans for app-cab work, 7-seaters like the Ertiga and Innova for airport and outstation duty, and Eecos and tempo travellers for shared and staff transport.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a second hand taxi cost in India?

Most used commercial cars sell between ₹2 lakh and ₹12 lakh. An older Eeco or Wagon R CNG starts around ₹2.5–4 lakh, a Swift Dzire CNG — the most common taxi in India — runs ₹4–7 lakh, an Ertiga ₹7–11 lakh, and a Toyota Innova Crysta ₹12–22 lakh depending on year and kilometres.

What should I check before buying a used taxi?

Check five things in order: how much permit and fitness validity is left, whether the odometer reading matches the service history, the remaining permissible age (10 years for diesel and 15 for petrol across Delhi NCR), that the RC is commercial and matches the seller, and the actual running cost per kilometre for that fuel type.

Can I buy a taxi car without a commercial licence?

Yes — you can own a commercial vehicle on a normal licence. You only need a commercial licence with a PSV badge to drive it for hire yourself. Many owners buy one or more taxis and employ badged drivers instead of driving.

Is a CNG or diesel taxi the better buy?

CNG for city and app-cab work, at roughly ₹3.5–4 per km against ₹5.5 for diesel, and it sidesteps the tighter 10-year diesel age limit in NCR. Diesel still earns its keep on outstation and highway routes where CNG stations are sparse and range matters.

Do the taxis listed here come with a valid permit?

Permit status is shown on each listing, and it varies — some vehicles carry a live contract-carriage or All India Tourist Permit, others have lapsed papers and are priced accordingly. Always confirm the remaining validity on the document itself before you pay; a lapsed permit means RTO work and fees before the car can earn.
