Edge is the reference layer of India's commercial vehicle economy. Figures on this page were counted on Sunday, 13 September 2026.
Benchmarks, certificates and decisions for lenders, insurers and makers. Maintained by agents under evidence rules, published with a grade and a date, and scored in public when the outcome arrives.
Every product carries a grade. Live is read from production. Modelled is from a stated method on thin data. Pilot is running with consenting clients. Next is named and priced, not yet built.
Each buyer sees one slice of the same vehicles and cannot share it with a rival. Edge is the neutral party that holds the join and stands behind the number.
Residual Index: the monthly benchmark, with the electric curve
Underwriting desk: loan-to-value with its evidence, in minutes
CV Passport: the body and its approval, certified
See what lenders buyCV Passport: one record per vehicle, ratified by the builder
Claims desk: IDV, mis-declaration and total-loss value, source quoted
Clean Room: claim frequency by body type across the market
See what insurers buyWhy we lost: verified operators, by district and variant
Launch reception: the first 72 hours in operators' own words
Dealer performance: how each door handled the enquiry
See what makers buyBenchmarks and certificates the market references. Once a rating agency cites the index or an insurer settles a claim on the Passport, participation stops being optional.
The Standard in fullWhat a commercial vehicle is worth by variant, age, kilometres and state, published monthly with its grade. The electric curve comes first, because it is the number that stalls electric truck finance and nobody credible owns it. Modelled today from list prices and nine closes on a young yard; every figure says so.
Which bodies are approved on which chassis type, as a certificate an insurer or lender accepts. It grows from the Body Book, which already reads 848 bodies on 480 chassis types and lets builders ratify them. The certificate is a PDF with a verification address.
One record per vehicle: chassis number, body, approvals and specs, ratified by the builder and accepted by an insurer. Once it settles a claim, body builders and dealers must submit to it. It runs as a pilot with one insurer while the registry is built.
A contractual, audited data trust. A maker, a lender and an insurer each contribute their slice and query only aggregates of the whole. Nobody sees a rival's rows, and a member can leave and take its rows out.
What the register sees that a maker cannot: the operator who compared four vehicles on truckaurbus.com and bought somebody else's.
The Counter in fullHow a launch landed in its first 72 hours in verified operators' own language, and how each of your dealers handled real enquiries: response time, callback rate, stock accuracy. It is the on-ramp to Why we lost at the same seat. Thin until enquiry volume grows.
Verified operators who considered your truck and bought another, by district and variant: the truck that won, the reason they give, and how your dealer handled the enquiry. For sale now to a design partner: your own enquiry funnel through the outcome loop from the day you sign, the operator panel, and the register's traffic. The grade moves as the outcomes arrive.
Where a segment's demand is moving month by month: the register's intent now, from compares, finance asks and callbacks by PIN. VAHAN registrations and e-way bill volumes join when they are ingested, each with its own grade. Sold as part of Why we lost or on the API.
Agents that run the decision inside your workflow, under the same evidence gates as our own register, and answer for it on the ledger.
The Desk in fullSend the loan file. Get back the loan-to-value with its evidence, the residual curve, the Passport check and the red flags, in minutes, with a grade and a hash. Every quarter we publish how far our numbers sat from the hammer price on recoveries.
IDV at inception, body mis-declaration at claim, total-loss value at settlement, each with the source quoted and the grade shown. Embedded in the insurer's claims system by API. Accuracy published quarterly, like the underwriting desk.
The instruments installed inside your firm: a three-week diagnostic on the register, a build, an operated fleet of agents, and a quarterly readout to your board. Client work runs through the same evidence gates as the register itself.
When a financed vehicle must be recovered, its value, its condition record and its sale on the yard come as one path. No borrower tracking is sold; the record is consent-first and device-free. The yard's fees apply on the sale.
Every prediction Edge publishes is hashed at the moment of publication and scored against the outcome in public. A number that was wrong stays wrong on the record. Nobody else in this market will put their agents' accuracy where you can check it.

A lender wants to know how vehicles like the ones on its book perform across the market. An insurer wants claim frequency by body type across the industry. A maker wants residuals across every lender. Each holds a piece. None can hand it to a rival. All can hand it to a neutral, audited utility.
Neutrality is the whole business. These hold for truckaurbus.com's own lead business as much as for anyone else's, and they are audited.
No maker, dealer or product can buy a better number. The scoring formula is published and the inputs are logged.
What you hand the desk stays with the desk. Nothing crosses the wall unless the contract says it may.
The public register is built from public sources. It cannot be used to work out who asked us what.
Paid work does not touch the index, the Passport or the ledger. The method decides those, and the method is open.
The firms that set the benchmark should pay to set it. A seat buys every instrument, the API and a vote in the method: what the index measures, what the Passport certifies, what the clean room may answer.
Seats close when they are taken.
Members sit in the quarterly method review and see every change before it ships.
The monthly front page goes to every reader. The tables and the API do not.
Tell us who you are and the decision you are pricing. The first conversation costs nothing. A reply comes on working days.
