Union Home Minister Amit Shah announced ‘Sahkar Taxi’ during his latest move to support drivers through a cooperative-based ride-hailing service. This new ride-sharing service by Sahkar Taxi enables drivers to maintain their complete earnings without charging any commissions or requiring middleman participation.
What Makes Sahkar Taxi Different From Ola And Uber?


Sahkar Taxi stands out from others because drivers maintain full control of all their earnings. Yes, the biggest difference? No intermediaries! The drivers will maintain complete ownership of their earnings through cooperative societies, so they earn more money while running their business as they choose.
Sahkar Taxi supports Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Sahkar Se Samriddhi’ plan to establish a fully open and honest ride-sharing network.
Empowering Drivers, Boosting Livelihoods
The driving community has been dealing with commission costs from their platforms and variable fares for an extended period. Everything is set to transform with the introduction of Sahkar Taxi. The government has dedicated three years and seven months to developing a plan that establishes driver independence regarding income generation and operating conditions.
The Controversy Around Ola And Uber
This government taxi entered the market during an important period when Ola and Uber faced severe accusations. The platforms allegedly implement a fare strategy that offers iPhone users higher rates than those who use Android devices. The issue of price discrimination has prompted the Central Consumer Protection Authority (CCPA) to file notices against both companies.
Pralhad Joshi, who serves as the Consumer Affairs Minister , has committed to examining the price practices that affect ride-hailing services , food delivery services , and online ticketing services.
What Makes Sahkar Taxi A Better Alternative?
- Pricing remains fair because the company avoids making price adjustments that charge customers unexpectedly.
- Drivers receive 100% of their total earnings through Sahkar Taxi.
- With its cooperative structure, it operates free from the control of corporate middlemen regarding pricing or payment management.
- Customers encounter dependable prices because Sahkar Taxi maintains a transparent operation model.
The Future Of Ride-Hailing In India
It will compete actively against Ola and Uber, thereby providing drivers and passengers with equal opportunities. The government-supported service has the power to transform the industry because it protects driver income while providing passengers with clear rates at reduced prices.
Sahkar Taxi is leading India through a new ride-hailing revolution that embraces fairness and transparency while empowering drivers. Success for this model could transform the entire industry, proving that cooperative platforms can compete effectively against established businesses.
