• Uber has been compelled to change its traditional commission-based pricing for its two- and three-wheeler segments in India.
  • The shift towards subscription-based models, pioneered by companies like Namma Yatri, is gaining traction in India and is seen by some experts as a potential global trend.
  • The Indian government is actively promoting commission-free alternatives, creating uncertainty about the future landscape.

      I don’t see what would the value of even using uber be as a passenger in places with so many rickshaws, surely it’s easier to talk to the nearest rickshaw driver than to use your phone and then have to wait for a specific driver…

      I guess it would be slightly easier to pay via an app than with cash?

        For longer and less common routes it’s much easier to book a Rickshaw through the app. Finding a Rickshaw that is willing to go where you want for a reasonable price can be hard. Not all places/rickshaws are willing to follow the Fare meter.

    I’m not sure any Indian folks will see this but I would recommend copying Ubers model and making your own instead of letting this blood sucking company get any foothold there.
