Force Motors partners with Rosmerta Recycling to give Delhi-NCR customers authorised scrappage access
Force Motors is steering eligible end-of-life vehicles in Delhi-NCR into an authorised Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facility through a new association with Rosmerta Auto Recycling.

What Happened
Force Motors Limited, which describes itself as India's largest van maker, announced an initiative to promote responsible end-of-life vehicle management by facilitating access to authorised scrappage for its customers. The company is working through an association with Rosmerta Auto Recycling Pvt. Ltd. to make authorised vehicle scrappage more accessible to customers in the Delhi-NCR region. Force Motors said the move strengthens its commitment under the MoU it signed with the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) to support the Commercial Vehicle Replacement Scheme in that region. Starting with Delhi-NCR, the company will also explore similar engagements in other parts of the country.
“As a responsible vehicle manufacturer, we believe our role extends beyond building and delivering vehicles. How a vehicle is managed at the end of its useful life matters too. Through this initiative, we want to encourage responsible scrappage and the recovery of valuable materials, while making it easier for our customers to choose authorised disposal channels. This is another practical step in our efforts to improve resource efficiency and promote more responsible practices across the automotive lifecycle.”
- Access to Rosmerta's Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facility (RVSF) for eligible Force Motors customers
- The necessary documentation, depollution and dismantling processes for end-of-life vehicles
- Segregation and recovery of recyclable materials
- Generation of relevant scrappage documentation, including the Certificate of Deposit, wherever applicable
Force Motors frames the initiative as part of a broader approach to customer responsibility that extends beyond the sale and operation of a vehicle. The company said that while regular maintenance and timely replacement are important parts of ownership, ensuring ageing vehicles are retired responsibly is equally important. Authorised scrappage, in its description, takes end-of-life vehicles through the appropriate process while enabling recovery and recycling of materials that would otherwise go to waste. By improving awareness and access to organised scrappage, Force Motors aims to support more responsible vehicle retirement practices and contribute to the recovery of valuable automotive materials.
The initiative aligns with Force Motors' continued focus on improving resource efficiency and reducing its environmental impact. By encouraging responsible disposal and the recovery of recyclable materials from end-of-life vehicles, the company aims to extend its sustainability approach beyond its manufacturing operations and support more responsible practices across the vehicle lifecycle. The announcement was made in Pune on 22nd October 2026.
Previously from Force Motors
In June 2026, Force Motors signed an MoU with India's Ministry of Road Transport and Highways to help replace older BS-IV and earlier commercial vehicles in Delhi-NCR with cleaner BS-VI or electric models. Today's scrappage initiative in the same region builds directly on that government-facing commitment.

Why this matters
The initiative gives Force Motors customers in Delhi-NCR an organised route to retire ageing vehicles instead of informal disposal, and it strengthens the company's commitment under its MoU with the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways to support the Commercial Vehicle Replacement Scheme in the region. It also matters for material recovery: scrapping facilities segregate and recycle materials that would otherwise go to waste.
