<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”><em><strong>Bharat Taxi Launch: </strong></em>India&rsquo;s cab-hailing market is seeing a new entry with the launch of Bharat Taxi in New Delhi today. The platform follows a cooperative-based model and is being introduced with support from the Ministry of Cooperation. Union Minister Amit Shah is scheduled to launch the app at 3 pm in Delhi-NCR. Unlike private ride apps, this service is structured around a driver-owned cooperative system.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Officials say the goal is to change how drivers are paid and managed. The service will begin in Delhi-NCR and may expand to other cities later.</span></p>
<h2><span style=”color: #ba372a;”><strong>What Is Bharat Taxi Cooperative Cab Service?</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Bharat Taxi is a ride-hailing app that operates under a cooperative structure instead of a private company model. It is run by Sahakar Taxi Cooperative Limited.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The platform is supported by people linked to the cooperative sector, not directly owned by the central government.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Under this system, drivers are members of the cooperative. Each driver, referred to as a Sarathi, holds shares in the organisation.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The platform does not deduct a commission from each ride. Instead, drivers are required to pay a fixed daily usage fee to access the app.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The cooperative model is being presented as an alternative to aggregator-based cab services. The focus is on shared ownership and fixed platform charges rather than percentage-based cuts per trip. The app had an earlier pilot run in parts of Delhi and Gujarat before the full launch.</span></p>
<h2><span style=”color: #ba372a;”><strong>How To Book A Ride On The Bharat Taxi App</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The Bharat Taxi app works in a similar way to other ride-booking apps. Users need to download the app, register using a mobile number, and enable location access. After signing in, they can enter pickup and drop points and view available vehicle options.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The app includes different ride categories such as AC cars, non-AC cars, larger vehicles, autos, and bike taxis. Payment and booking flow follow standard in-app steps.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The platform also lists safety measures like driver verification, a support helpline, and complaint booths set up with Delhi Police support. More rollout phases are expected after the Delhi-NCR launch.</span></p>
