Why AIS 140 GPS Tracking System is Mandatory

Automotive Industry Standard AIS 140 gps is a set of standards published by the Automotive Research Association of India ( ARAI ) designed to build an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). ITS is an advanced application which aims to provide innovative services relating to different modes of transport and traffic management and enable users to be better informed and make safer, more coordinated, and smarter use of transport networks.

AIS 140 GPS IRNSS : The Necessity & The Evolution

The statistics from the economic survey in India showcased that the logistics industry alone will near USD 215 billion by 2020. On the Other hand, India's transport sector will grow at a rate of 5.9 percent through 2021 as per the financial report by the GOI (Government of India). These figures show that the Indian Economy highly depends on the transportation system and in future, it is going to be increased and also the vehicles on the road are increasing daily.

Let's pick it up with another perspective, traffic growth in Indian cities is at unprecedented levels, and traffic congestion in metropolitan areas like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore is barely regulated and has always been a major concern to GOI. To tackle this burning problem , Fleetx has introduced AIS 140 GPS Tracking Device.

As per the estimates of the Bangalore Development Authority, people living in Bangalore spend around 60 hours per year, this amounts to 37 Million Indian Rupees of straight loss in terms of productivity of the workforce which otherwise would have added a significant bite in country's GDP. These figures are for passenger vehicles only, you can imagine the impact such a figure might have brought with the commercial vehicle segment and the associated Industries they are engaged to. On top of that, fuel loss if accounted in lieu of the traffic congestion would again be considerably high. Indian Government is well aware that poorly regulated traffic invariably leads to multi-fold loss.

Therefore there is a need for government guidelines which specify the emergency and safety standards that need to be implied in all kind of public transport systems. The most reliable use and strict compliance of AIS 140 GPS Tracking can help ease the congestion on the roads, improve traffic management and reduce the environmental impact. This will benefit commercial users as well as the public.
