Bharat Taxi

Bharat Taxi, launched on 6 June 2025 under the Multi‑State Cooperative Societies Act, 2002, is India’s first cooperative‑led ride‑hailing platform. Backed by eight national cooperative institutions, it operates a zero‑commission, subscription‑based model that lets driver‑owners (“Sarathis”) retain full fare earnings and participate in governance through shareholding and board representation. As of 25 July 2026 the platform reports nearly 8 lakh registered drivers and 41 lakh customers across several cities, with plans for nationwide rollout by 2029. It integrates with Digital India services (DigiLocker, UMANG, API Setu) and offers women‑centric features, social security via e‑Shram, and partnerships with agencies such as Delhi Traffic Police and State Bank of India.
