GirnarSoft, the parent company of auto portals such as CarDekho.com, Gaadi.com and Zigwheels.com, has launched BusesDekho.com in the passenger commercial vehicle segment.
This move comes after a successful one-year run with its trucking platform, TrucksDekho.com. BusesDekho is aimed at filling the digitisation void in the passenger commercial vehicle segment. It also bridges the gap between manufacturers and bus owners in the domestic space.
Talking about the new platform, Robinder Gauba, Business Head for TrucksDekho and BusesDekho said, “While digitisation has been slowly seeping into the commercial vehicle space, there is still a huge void with respect to auto sites catering to this growing demand. With this launch, we are looking to build a holistic online ecosystem where fleet owners can research, compare and discover the best vehicle options to meet their requirements.”
BusesDekho aims to be a one-stop solution for researching, analysing and comparing buses, vans and other passenger commercial vehicles. On BusesDekho.com, users can search for buses, vans and autorickshaws from leading brands, check specifications, view pictures and videos, download brochures and get prices of models. Additionally, the users can compare specifications of vehicles and find the nearest dealers, service centers, spare parts and body makers.
With 189 models comprising of 156 buses, 18 vans and 15 auto rickshaws, BusesDekho provides a platform for buyers and fleet owners to gather information about their choice of products. The portal also contains verified addresses of over 2000 dealers, 2500 service centers, 2500 spare part centres and 312 body makers across India.
GirnarSoft forayed into the commercial vehicle segment last year with TrucksDekho.com. The online trucking portal has an average of 10-12 Lakh monthly page views from 2-3 Lakh unique visitors. TrucksDekho.com provides comprehensive information about trucks, including specs, features, prices, comparisons, reviews and industry insights. It has collaborated with several major dealerships in India including Cargo Motors, FortPoint, Kasliwal Trucking, and GRD Trucks.
The Girnar Software group runs auto portals – CarDekho.com, Gaadi.com and Zigwheels.com, and other digital properties such as BikeDekho.com and PriceDekho.com. The company also has also specialised portals like TyreDekho.com and TrucksDekho.com. GirnarSoft went international in 2015 with the launch of CarBay.com in multiple countries in Southeast Asia, Africa and Middle East.
In July 2016, it acqui-hired Valueserve Management Consultants in a cash deal. Earlier in April, it acquired road-side assistance company Help On Wheels in an all cash deal.
