Ashik Patel doesn't think this is a waste of money at all and has solid reasons for spending this kind of money on a number-plate.
¡°I got 007 number for my maiden vehicle and it has brought a windfall for me. For me, it is not about the money, it is about the belief that this number is lucky for me," Patel told TOI.

It is reported that the bidding for this specific number started at 25,000 and Ashik was the first to submit a bid of Rs 34 lakhs just as the deadline was about to pass. He has been awarded vehicle registration number GJ01WA007 for his car!
We wish he would have donated all this money to the poor or the needy and maybe their blessings would have been luckier for him.
