For governments and regulators

The public data, free and versioned, and written answers on the evidence, dated and graded. Departments do not need an account for either; the desk answers on working days.

Figures on this page were counted on 12 September 2026.

the public data, evidence for policy

Three questions you ask

  1. Which of Edge’s data is public, and how do we cite or correct it?
  2. What does the evidence say about residual values and about bodies on chassis?
  3. How do we reach the desk?

What answers them

Residual IndexModelled

The Standard

What 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.

Unit and band
single valuations from 49 rupees; the licence and the IDV and LTV tables are quoted by the desk
a licence a year
Now
Live arithmetic from list prices and the yard's closes; the curve is modelled until the yard deepens.
The Standard

Body Book certificateNext

The Standard

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.

Unit and band
499 rupees a certificate; insurer and lender licences a year
per certificate; a licence a year
Now
Stages one to three are live: the envelope from Rule 93, bodies read from photographs, ratification by builders and makers.
The Standard

What is free

The on-road rules for every state we cover, the register’s schema and body-type vocabulary, the Residual Index by class, and the commitment ledger of every forecast and its verdict. All public, versioned, with a date and a grade; a state department can correct its own table through the repository. Edge answers written questions on the evidence with the same discipline, and never pitches.

How to reach the desk

Write to [email protected] with the question and the decision behind it. The desk answers in writing, with the figure, its date and its grade, and never with a pitch. Departments that work with the desk on public fleets or procurement do so under their own terms, off this page.
