FAQ10

Common Questions

Our fare calculator uses real per-km rates (₹15/km Sedan, ₹19/km SUV, ₹23/km Innova Crysta) and the same formula our drivers use. The estimate is within ±5% of the final fare. Tolls and parking are approximate — actual amounts may vary by route.

Verified Answer

Yes. The detailed fare breakdown shows GST separately. For outstation trips, 5% GST applies on the total fare including driver bata. For local/rental trips, GST is calculated on the rental amount.

Verified Answer

Driver bata (allowance) is a fixed amount that covers the driver's meals and overnight stay when the trip distance exceeds ~130 km or requires a night halt away from the home base. Sedan bata is ₹500, SUV ₹600, Innova Crysta ₹600. It is quoted upfront and never added as a surprise.

Verified Answer

A one-way fare is calculated on the actual trip distance only. A round-trip fare uses the total distance (both legs), but the driver stays at your destination for up to 4 hours at no extra cost — you do not need to book a separate return cab.

Verified Answer

Outstation trips have a 130 km minimum for one-way and 250 km for round trips. This covers driver return fuel costs. The calculator enforces these minimums automatically.

Verified Answer

Airport transfers use a 10 km minimum billing distance. The fare is: (Distance × per-km rate) + any applicable toll or parking. No driver bata is charged for airport trips.

Verified Answer

Yes. Use the calculator for an estimate, then WhatsApp or call us with your pickup location, destination, and travel date — we confirm the exact fare before you book. No advance payment required.

Verified Answer

Yes. Enter the total distance for any South India inter-state route (Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Puducherry). For inter-state trips, add the state permit charge in the Permit field — typically ₹300–₹500.

Verified Answer

Hourly rentals include a base package (5 hrs / 50 km for Sedan). Extra hours are billed at ₹100–₹150/hr and extra km at ₹12–₹16/km depending on cab type. Use the Rent tab in the calculator to get the full breakdown.

Verified Answer

Yes — tap 'Share Estimation Report (PNG)' to generate a detailed fare image you can save or send via WhatsApp. The report includes all charge breakdowns so there are no surprises when you travel.
