  • 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.

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.
