• Union Home Minister Amit Shah launched Bharat Taxi, India's first cooperative-led ride-hailing platform, at Vigyan Bhavan.
• The platform operates on a zero-commission, surge-free pricing model, distributing profits directly to drivers who are also shareholders.
• Bharat Taxi has already onboarded over 3 lakh drivers and 1 lakh users, completing 10,000+ daily rides in pilot regions (Delhi-NCR, Gujarat).
• Sarathis (drivers) receive ₹5 lakh Personal Accident insurance and ₹5 lakh Group Health Insurance for themselves and their families.
• Fares are estimated to be up to 30% lower than private aggregators, intensifying competition in the ride-hailing market.
