Right To Information Act.

Send one more email to them also attach both the documents which have collected from the RTO. also mention them RTO has rejected the registration stating the mismatch reasons. Have you already contacted SKODA for getting the manufacturing date of your vehicle?

if you have not got any response send the email again till they reply back.

Replay from skoda

Dear Mr. Jidesh,

This is in continuation to your below mail and subsequent to our telecom. Please find enclosed Form 21 sale certificate attached for your ready reference, wherein it is very clearly mentioned that the year of manufacturing of the said car is January 2009.

Kindly be informed that the said vehicle was assembled at Skoda Auto India Pvt Ltd, Aurangabad in the month of January 2009.

Moreover the date or year mentioned on the windscreen glass or any other part is of manufacturing year of that particular part manufactured outside India.


Similarly the VIN is embossed at our Parent Company in Czech Republic.

Please do not have any apprehensions as you have an authentic document from Skoda Auto India mentioning the actual date of manufacturing of the vehicle.

We request you to coordinate with your RTO for getting the needful done accordingly.

Thanks &

Best Regards,

 

Rahul Kulkarni

I got the Entire documents from Transport commisioner office regarding the ARAI Approval

documents for skoda octavia .  As per  the docs , it  clearly says  that  the 10th digit of VIN

represents the year  and  6th Digit represent the Month .

My cars VIN : TMBCGH1U88A009754

Year code :  8 ----> 2008

Month code : H -----> August  ( Eg. A -Jan , B - Feb   and so on But "I" is excluded )

This is for a vechile delivred in november 2009 .

And also  got a confirmation letter from TC  that my vechile ha s to be registred in Ernakulam RT office .   Now i have enough proof  for the  cheating and consumer case to proceed .

Skoda VIN as per ARAI document says vehicle manufactured in 08/2008

Skoda says Vehicle "assembled" in India on 01/2009

Your Vehicle delivered to you on 11/2009

A vehicle which took more than 1 year to sell ?!! Impossible

Also what the date of invoice of this vehicle from skoda to your dealer?

... in continuation to previous post

It means The vehicle is manufactured by skoda operating from CzechoSlavakia, Europe..  manufactured in their plant located at Aurangabad (India) in 2008.

The vehicle specific data "CGH1U" may be decoded as Škoda Octavia, [unknown model], 1.9 TDI 66kw..

As per skoda's claim all the parts including chassis with VIN code are manufactured in their European plants.. imported to india and assembled in 2009.. If it is so Skoda must planned.. in which plant the product will be assembled... what will be the variant type .. Ambiante, elegance etc.. type of engine to be added ... diesel or petrol etc before manufacturing the chassis But as per their claim they are not planned in which year it will be assembled..

So this claim is not believable.

But they can come up with a claim similar to - "because of the economic slowdown we have changed the production plan ... That is we have initially planned to assemble the vehicle in 2008 itself and stamped the chassis with the VIN code, but because of the decrease in vehicle sales in 2008 due to the Global economic problems we have rescheduled the production plan and assembled the vehicle in 2009 only... hence the incident"
