Bharat Taxi's Cooperative Model Aims to Boost Driver Earnings

The Bharat Taxi App will operate on a cooperative business model. This means it will not have a single owner. The taxi service will operate under Sahakar Taxi Cooperative Limited.

Bharat Taxi: For people in metro cities, Uber, Ola, and Rapido have become an integral part of life. Whenever there's a need to go somewhere, a cab is booked through an app. In most cases, these service providers prove reliable. But not always. Issues like dirty cabs, surge pricing, or cancelled rides are common. However, there's good news for cab service users. Bharat Taxi is set to launch on January 1, 2026. It is claimed that customers will not face any problems with this service. Let's explore its business model.

Cooperative Business Model

Bharat Taxi will operate under a cooperative business model. The ownership does not lie with a single business house. Similar to the dairy company Amul, it will function on a cooperative model.

The government is also backing this initiative.
