There are several private detectives and agents generally employed by Banks, and they provide entire details of assets of individuals for a fee.  You can also file an application to Court seeking their directions for informing the assets in the name of the defendant. As savings, investments etc are personal information, Public Information officers of Authorities like LIC of India may not provide information and once the appeal finally goes to CIC, hearing may come only after 2 years.  Car particulars can be secured from on line portal of RTO Also if you know the car number, and under RTI you can seek copy of RC book and it will be provided to you.  If you once commence RTI, some PIOs may even seek comments from the person involved as this kind of reference is a formality under RTI, once your attempts are known, such cunning defaulters may change the asset in the name of their dependants etc.  All your efforts should be kept confidential.

There is no bar in seeking information from the public authority under RTI Act by a citizen.

However, PIO is under obligation to provide the information of third parties by seeking the comments of the third party and considering exemptions stated in Sec.8 (1)
