10 Jan 2020 CW Team

This acquisition fosters the vision of Shriram Automall to enter industrial auction in addition to its existing automobile industry. 123done.in gets back-up of Shriram Group and CarTrade Group’s existing relationships of public and private sector banks, NBFCs and other clientele for sourcing. Also, it is likely to exercise its services pan-India through Shriram Automall’s extensive presence all over Tier-I, -II and -III cities. It will begin a new journey for customers who are looking for transparent, organised and professional solutions for industrial equipment and commodities for a long time.

Sameer Malhotra, Director and CEO, Shriram Automall India, said, that “We are growing exponentially year-on-year basis and have been exploring new industries to add up to our existing vehicle auction business to grow multi-fold in the coming years. We found industrial equipment and commodities industries as most complimentary in the auction business, which aptly suits our 10 million customer base at Shriram Group and CarTrade Group. Thus, we found 123done.in, which is a right fit to match our vision. We are excited to find the right kind of leadership in 123done.in to be part of our growth story.”
