How Karnataka's Cab Fare Update Will Benefit Commuters

How Karnataka's Cab Fare Update Will Benefit Commuters

NDTV
Monday, February 5, 2024 12:55 PM GMT

The new fare structure, outlined in a notification, categorises cabs based on vehicle value.

The Karnataka Transport Department has introduced uniform cab fares applicable to both app-based aggregators like Ola and Uber, as well as traditional non-app-based taxi services, across cities in the state. The new fare structure, outlined in a notification, categorises cabs based on vehicle value.  Predictable Costs: With uniform taxi fares, commuters can expect consistent pricing for their journeys, eliminating the unpredictability associated with surge pricing during peak hours or high-demand periods. Fair Pricing: Surge pricing, where fares increase during busy times, can often lead to inflated costs for passengers. Standardised fares help ensure that commuters are charged fairly, promoting transparency and preventing abrupt spikes in pricing. Budget-Friendly Travel: Knowing the fixed rates for luggage weight also contributes to a budget-friendly travel experience. Passengers won't face unexpected charges for excess baggage, as the regulations provide clarity on charges per extra kilogram. Consumer Confidence: Clear regulations and standardised pricing build consumer confidence in taxi services. Commuters can plan their journeys with greater assurance, knowing they won't encounter sudden and significant variations in fare rates. Enhanced Customer Experience: The overall aim of these regulations is to create a more regulated and consumer-friendly environment. Commuters benefit from a streamlined and consistent experience, reducing the stress associated with uncertain fares and baggage charges.

For vehicles under Rs 10 lakh:

  - Fixed fare for the initial 4 km: Rs 100

  - Additional charge per km: Rs 24
