Pre-purchase dominated
With fewer new-car showrooms, most Kalundre work is pre-purchase inspection of used cars, often bought from dealers in Panvel or Vashi. Repaint, accident history and odometer integrity are the focus.
Kalundre and the villages around Kopar Kharghar sit between Kharghar and Panvel, a pocket with a mix of older housing, new township land and light industry. It is less served by showrooms, so pre-purchase inspection is the dominant request.
Every Kalundre inspection runs the same 80+ point checklist across 11 sections, with photo evidence for every finding and a report on WhatsApp and email within 15 minutes. Inspection starts at ₹999, with no travel charge.
We travel to the vehicle, wherever it is in Kalundre. Common inspection points include dealer yards, society parking, private homes and stockyards.

Proximity to the creek means humid conditions. We check for early corrosion on underbody metal, damp at the boot floor and cabin carpet, and air-conditioning performance.
Parts of this belt have unpaved internal roads. Firm, level ground matters for paint thickness readings, so we confirm the inspection spot with you first.
