Please note that you are going to diversify your business by doing TRADING ACTIVITY in oil. It is nothing to do with your existing activity of manufacturing Automobile parts. Presuming that oil is not required in any manner in your existing manufacturing activity, you will require to take Dealer's Registration to carry out sand trading activity.
