Cab aggregators in India have had a thorny journey so far. In July, the Delhi Autorickshaw Sangh and Delhi Pradesh Taxi Union called for an indefinite strike against app-based taxi services in New Delhi. In August, the Delhi High Court issued a notice to companies providing cab services to stop surge pricing and follow government prescribed fares. It had set August 22 as the deadline for app-based cab aggregators to completely withdraw surge pricing.
In September, this year reports surfaced that the Indian Government is reportedly planning to establish a maximum limit on fares to monitor surge pricing by online cab aggregates like Ola.
But Ola cab services now introduced sharing cab fares and auto services as well so if ignore surge pricing then these are providing best services otherwise they are working against the public convenience. It is easy to book but difficult to pay prices which are more than your usage.
