On the 10th year anniversary of receiving its 1st ever order, Droom, India’s leading automobile marketplace, added a new category – Droom Rental. Droom Rental is tech and AI driven and offers the widest selection of automobiles from bicycles to planes, covering 25,000+ automobiles across 9+ categories – cars, buses, coaches, helicopters, planes, yachts, ambulances, scooters, bikes, and bicycles. Spanning over 25 cities, Droom Rental offers flexible rental options, from daily rentals (local, intercity, airports) to weddings rental, corporate rental, employee transportation solution, event rentals and self-drive. Within just 1st week of launch, Droom Rentals secured over 1,500 listings from 100+ rental suppliers across 25+ cities, making it one of the top 12 largest rental companies in India.
At present, the automobile rental market is highly unorganized, with serious trust deficit, lack of transparent pricing and non-standard experience with limited adoption of technology and AI for a $23bn automobile rental market in India. While the ride-hailing segment has successfully integrated advanced technology and streamlined operations, other rental categories such as daily rental, corporate rental, wedding rental, employee transportation solution and event rental etc remain largely unorganized, inefficient and full of fragmented providers.
Commenting on the announcement, Sandeep Aggarwal, Founder & CEO of Droom said, “automobile rental has been a long-standing pain-point for me as the sector lacks trust, transparency, standardization, large/diverse fleet or premium fleet option and technology played no role. I have heard similar experiences from my friends and family. We saw an opportunity that by leveraging Droom.in as our AI and tech driven marketplace platform for automobiles buying & selling and our tech and E-Commerce DNA, we could also disrupt automobile rental market in India. Very soon we will add highly advanced technology stack for corporate rental, employee transportation solution and all other rental types, brining India’s automobile rental market at par with global standards, if not better.”
