Factors That Affect Your Taxi Fare

Understanding how taxi fares are calculated helps you plan your budget better. Our pricing model considers several key factors:

Distance & Route

The primary factor is the total distance between pickup and drop locations. We use the most efficient route via highways when available to minimize travel time and cost. Longer trips typically have lower per-kilometer rates.

Vehicle Type

Choose from Sedan (₹13-14/km), SUV (₹17-18/km), or Premium vehicles (₹20-22/km). Sedans like Swift Dzire are ideal for 3-4 passengers, while Innova SUVs accommodate 6-7 passengers comfortably.

Trip Type

One-way trips charge for actual distance only. Round trips (minimum 250km) offer better value with driver allowance included. Outstation trips may have different rate structures based on overnight stays.

Additional Charges

Toll fees, parking charges, and waiting time (₹2/minute after 5 minutes) are added separately. Night surcharge of 25% applies for trips between 11 PM and 6 AM. All charges are clearly itemized in your estimate.
