Bharat Taxi: Key Features

Bharat Taxi, a ride-hailing app, is built to enhance the passenger experience and benefit lakhs of drivers across the country. Key features of the app include:

- User-friendly mobile ride booking

- Transparent fares and vehicle tracking

- Support for multi-lingual interfaces

- 24/7 customer service

- Secure and verified onboarding

- Inclusive mobility

- Tech-enabled support and safety measures for citizens

The app is designed on a zero commission model, which ensures drivers retain full earnings from every completed ride. Additionally, any profit generated by the cooperative society will be distributed directly to registered drivers, the PTI report added.

The Bharat Taxi aims to simplify travel by integrating with existing transit services, such as Metro rail. This allows users to seamlessly book and complete multi-modal journeys using a single app for maximum convenience. A strategic tie-up with the Delhi Police ensures the safety of riders and drivers. Speaking in the Parliament, the Union Ministry on Tuesday said that the app aims to free the country's commercial vehicle drivers from dependency on private ride-hailing companies.
