Global standard embraces local requirements 

TecAlliance India’s first service for the Indian Independent Automotive Aftermarket is the TecDoc Catalogue, which for the first time contains the parts data of suppliers, applications mapped to global standard K-Type of TecAlliance. This gives distributors, retailers and workshops in India a much better tool to identify the right parts for the repair of vehicles. 

To facilitate the ease of identifying spare parts, TecAlliance India has launched a new feature which enables the user to search via the Vehicle Registration Number. With this feature, the correct spare parts are found for around 80% of the searches. 

The TecDoc India Catalogue is available in English at https://web.tecalliance.net/tecdocindia.
