Bharat Taxi partners with Namma Yatri
Bharat Taxi, a new ride-hailing service run by drivers, has teamed up with Namma Yatri, a tech platform backed by Google.
This partnership allows drivers to keep all their earnings and have a say in the company.
The service is being tested in Delhi and Gujarat with no fees taken from drivers' fares.
Namma Yatri, which already works with governments in southern India, is now expanding into the north.
This move could challenge big companies like Uber and Ola, which also offer similar no-fee models.
The partnership is significant because it uses open technology that can connect with public transport systems, making it easier for drivers and passengers.
Bharat Taxi partners with Namma Yatri for a cooperative-run ride-hailing platform.
The service operates on a zero-commission model, allowing drivers to keep 100% of fares.
Pilot locations include Delhi and Gujarat, with 88,000 drivers currently registered.
Namma Yatri's flat fee is ₹25 per day or ₹3.5 per ride, lower than competitors.
The partnership marks Namma Yatri's expansion into north India, a region it has struggled to penetrate previously.
