Roadzen Inc. (NASDAQ: RDZN) announced a definitive agreement to acquire VehicleCare, an AI‑powered vehicle repair and workshop aggregation platform headquartered in India, for an equity‑based consideration of approximately $277 million. The transaction is structured as a share issuance at the Roadzen India subsidiary level, with the subsidiary issuing shares to VehicleCare’s founders and shareholders. The deal is expected to add roughly $10 million of revenue over the next twelve months and is slated to close within two weeks, subject to customary closing conditions.
VehicleCare operates a national network of more than 350 independent workshops across 21 states and has processed over 40,000 claims to date. The platform has delivered a 30 % reduction in loss cost compared with OEM garages and has lowered fraud exposure while speeding repair outcomes. The acquisition gives Roadzen a physical repair execution layer that complements its existing AI‑driven claims decisioning, enabling insurers to offer end‑to‑end visibility and repair‑timeline guarantees that have been difficult to scale in the market.
Roadzen’s FY2025 full‑year revenue was $44.3 million, a 5.2 % decline year‑over‑year largely due to the suspension of GAP insurance sales in the UK. The company’s Q3 FY2025 results showed a net loss of $2.5 million, but the acquisition of VehicleCare is projected to lift revenue by $10 million and improve profitability by leveraging VehicleCare’s breakeven operations and cost efficiencies. The equity issuance at the subsidiary level will dilute the India subsidiary’s shares by about 2 % but will not affect the parent company’s public shareholders.
Strategically, the deal positions Roadzen as a full‑stack claims infrastructure partner. By integrating VehicleCare’s repair execution into its AI‑driven workflow, Roadzen can offer insurers a seamless claims experience from underwriting to repair, a capability that differentiates it from competitors who only provide claims intelligence. The transaction also strengthens Roadzen’s presence in India, where it already operates DrivebuddyAI and other modules, and gives it immediate access to a large insurer, broker, and fleet operator customer base.
Rohan Malhotra, Roadzen’s founder and CEO, said the acquisition “adds the final missing piece—transforming us into a full‑stack claims infrastructure partner.” Arvind Verma, VehicleCare’s CEO, added that the partnership will “build the most comprehensive repair execution platform in India and, over time, expand into Roadzen’s global markets.” Management expects integration to begin immediately after closing, with a phased rollout of VehicleCare’s network into Roadzen’s AI platform and a target of achieving full operational synergy within 12 months.
The announcement has been received positively by the market, with analysts noting the deal’s potential to accelerate Roadzen’s revenue growth and improve margin profile. While specific market reaction data is not yet available, the transaction aligns with Roadzen’s broader strategy of scaling AI‑enabled insurance solutions and expanding into high‑growth geographies.
