Interacting with LifeInChandgiarh.com, Choudhary said the machine, developed by one of the company’s own dealers in Madhya Pradesh Kishore Chhabra, brought to the table a win-win situation for both the vehicle owners as well as the petrol dealers. “To a customer it brings a most transparent process of oil change, that too free of any service charges. To a petrol dealer it brings a golden opportunity to increase his lube business.”
“We have started an awareness drive both for our valued customers as well as the dealers to convince them about the immense benefits of the ServoExpress facility and we are confident that it is going to gather popularity,” Choudhary added.
The machine costs approximately Rs 30,000 and its running cost is next to negligible. It can handle 100 two-wheelers and four wheelers per day and its lifespan is between 7-10 years. As an incentive to increase its lube sales, IOCL is offering this machine free of cost to its dealers who commit to a certain volume of lube orders from the company.
