A service record in India is still mostly paper and chat. That is enough if you keep the right pieces: the itemised estimate, the invoice, the date, and a photo of anything that was replaced. Vehicle owners can also use the Relatim app on Google Play. The Play Store listing My Garage by Relatim is for garage partners who take jobs, not a logbook for owners.
What to keep after every job
Date. Vehicle registration or a clear model note. What was approved. What was done. Amount paid. Photo of old parts if a replacement was claimed. A WhatsApp thread that already has those lines is a usable record. Relatim’s process is built so that thread exists before the keys move.
Why it matters
Resale. Avoiding a second workshop “discovering” a job you already paid for. Warranty conversations. The next mechanic. None of that needs a new login. It needs a folder — phone album plus PDF — that you can forward.
What Relatim gives you today
An itemised quote from a verified mechanic, cost confirmed, extras needing a new yes. That is the start of the record. We are a vehicle advisor, not a garage. Use the Relatim app on Google Play, or keep the WhatsApp thread — both work.
Authorised stamps versus independent invoices
A dealer stamp is useful when the booklet asks for one. An independent invoice is useful when the work was real and itemised. Keep both when you use both doors. Relatim is not an authorised centre. Use each door for what it is for.
If you lost the last papers
Start from this job. Send the vehicle and the area. Ask the mechanic to write the lines. Photograph the invoice before you leave. That is how a record begins again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Relatim have an app where I store my service history?
Yes. Vehicle owners can use the Relatim app on Google Play. Also keep the invoice, the itemised quote and the WhatsApp thread. My Garage by Relatim on Play Store is the separate app for garage partners.
What should I keep after a job?
Date, vehicle, approved amount, what was done, and photos of old parts if something was replaced. That file is what a buyer or a later mechanic can use.
Is a WhatsApp quote a real record?
It is a useful start if it is itemised and dated. Pair it with the invoice. Relatim’s process is built so that thread exists before the keys move.
