Increase in the number of vehicles in India, the telematics industry had planned to invest $300 million in India. India Commercial Vehicles Telematics Market has seen remarkable growth as the freight transporting companies have become more cautious about their vehicle maintenance, vehicle security, goods delivery status, fuel management system, and road safety.
Vehicle Telematics solution in the world operates on four key factors
1) Coordinating with a telecom operator to provide data services
2) Cloud hosting system
3) GPS tracking hardware device installed in the vehicle
4) Optimizing these features in the application.
