OLX India Data Parser & API

OLX India (olx.in) is the country’s largest C2C vehicle-classifieds platform — the acquisition that brought it into CarTrade Tech added ~68M average monthly unique visitors and ~32M listings/yr to the group — and Carapis extracts its used-car listing data through one REST API. Now part of CarTrade Tech, OLX India is the single biggest pool of private used-car ads in India, and Carapis serves it without you fighting its DataDome-class bot defences.

What is OLX India?

OLX India is the Indian arm of the OLX classifieds brand, acquired by CarTrade Tech in August 2023 (₹535.54 Cr, via Sobek Auto India). Its autos vertical is the largest source of consumer-to-consumer used-vehicle ads in India — cars, motorcycles and commercial vehicles. Semrush estimates ~15.8M monthly visits to olx.in (April 2026); the acquisition disclosure cited ~68M average monthly unique visitors and ~32M listings/yr across the OLX India business.

Market Position

OLX India is the C2C cornerstone of the CarTrade Tech ownership cluster, which also includes CarWale, CarTrade, BikeWale and Shriram Automall. Its ~32M listings/yr make it the highest-volume used-vehicle classifieds source in the country. Because CarWale (portal), OLX India (C2C), BikeWale (moto) and Shriram Automall (auction) sit under one owner, a single Carapis parser stack against CarTrade properties covers a very large share of India’s organised auto listings.

Data Fields Available

Carapis extracts a structured record from each OLX India vehicle listing:

• Vehicle identity — make, model, model year, body type, fuel type, transmission
• Condition — mileage (self-reported)
• Pricing — listed asking price
• Listing context — seller info, location, photo gallery

OLX India is a classifieds source, so fields are listing-level (no VIN or inspection feed), but its sheer volume makes it the best window into India’s private-sale used-car market.
