The Union Home Minister recently launched Bharat Taxi in Gujarat, a cooperative-model ride-hailing platform designed to give drivers greater ownership and economic participation.
About Bharat Taxi
Bharat Taxi is India’s first cooperative-led, driver-owned ride-hailing platform, registered under the Multi-State Cooperative Societies Act, 2002. It is a government-supported initiative under the Ministry of Cooperation and the National e-Governance Division (NeGD).
Unlike conventional private ride-hailing platforms, Bharat Taxi treats drivers as “Sarathis” and allows them to become shareholders and members of the cooperative, giving them greater participation in decision-making.
Institutional Support
The platform has been developed by Sahkar Taxi Cooperative Limited and is backed by eight major cooperative institutions: NCDC, GCMMF (Amul), NDDB, NAFED, IFFCO, KRIBHCO, NABARD and NCEL.
Key Features
Driver Ownership: Drivers can purchase shares and become cooperative members, giving them greater ownership, transparency and participation in the platform.
Zero Commission: Unlike conventional aggregators that deduct commissions from fares, Bharat Taxi aims to transfer the full fare to the driver.
Transparent Pricing: The platform follows a no-surge pricing model, helping passengers avoid unpredictable fare increases during periods of high demand.
Digital Integration: Bharat Taxi is designed to integrate with national digital platforms such as DigiLocker, UMANG and API Setu, strengthening its digital ecosystem.
Security and Compliance: The platform is intended to follow Government of India data-protection and cybersecurity standards, supported by robust digital infrastructure.
Support for Sarathis
Bharat Taxi seeks to strengthen the livelihoods of drivers by providing access to loans, insurance and business-expansion opportunities. The cooperative model aims to shift drivers from being merely service providers to stakeholders and owners of the platform.
