New Rules on Ola -uber: Now the fare will be increased in hail-uber peak hours, pockets will be affected

News India Live, Digital Desk: New Rules on Ola -uber: If you travel by app-based taxi services like Ola or Uber, then there is an important news for you! Now you will think, is the fare increasing? So the answer is, yes, especially in peak hours (busiest time), now you have to pay a little more money. The government has allowed cab aggregators (app-based taxi services) to increase ‘surge pricing’.

What is the pricing and now what is the change?

You must have often seen that when the demand of vehicles is very high when the demand for vehicles is very high and the availability is less, then there is a sudden increase in fare on the app when the demand for vehicles is very high. This is called ‘Surge Pricing’.

Earlier, the government had some control over this ‘Surge pricing’, and companies could not increase it more than a fixed range (such as 1.5 times of base fare). But now under new terms and conditions, the government has given a little more discounts to companies. This means that in peak hours, where the demand of passengers is very high and the number of trains on the road is less, these companies will be able to increase the surz pricing according to their own.

What is the logic of government and companies?

The government believes that this step will give many benefits:

  • More vehicles will be found: When the fare gets more, more and more drivers will take their car to work in these busy times. With this you will get vehicles easily and customers will not have to wait for a long time.


  • Drivers benefit: This will increase the earnings of drivers, which will give them more excited services.

  • Better service: Its purpose is to make services better and more reliable, especially when you need the most.

What will be the effect on your pocket?

These new rules can definitely put a little extra burden on the pockets of passengers traveling in busy times. Meaning in peak hours, you may have to loose a little more pockets. However, companies are hoping that passengers will accept it due to better availability and low waiting.

This is such a step of the government that is trying to balance customers ‘facilities, drivers earnings and companies’ costs. In the coming time, it has to be seen how these new rules affect urban transport and cab industry.
