Bharat Taxi, India’s upcoming ride-hailing platform, is witnessing rapid early adoption even before its official nationwide rollout. The platform is currently adding around 40,000 to 45,000 new users every day, signalling strong public interest and growing momentum ahead of its national launch.
Rapid Growth Before Full Launch
Despite being in a pre-launch phase, Bharat Taxi has already crossed 4 lakh registered users. The pace of daily sign-ups places it among the fastest-growing mobility platforms in the country at this early stage. Industry observers note that such growth is unusual for a service that is still expanding its geographical reach.
The surge suggests that users are actively looking for alternatives in the ride-hailing space, particularly platforms that promise better transparency and fairness.
Strong Presence On App Stores
Bharat Taxi’s customer app has quickly climbed app-store rankings. On Android devices, it has entered the top 10 ride-hailing apps, while on iOS it ranks within the top 15. The driver-side app has also seen strong traction, indicating high interest among drivers to onboard even before large-scale operations begin.
What Is Driving User Interest
One of the main factors behind Bharat Taxi’s popularity is its cooperative-based model. Unlike traditional ride-hailing platforms, Bharat Taxi positions itself as driver-friendly, allowing drivers to retain the full fare during the initial phase.
The platform also highlights:
- Transparent fare calculation
- No surge pricing shocks
- Safety features such as emergency alerts
- Multiple booking options including local rides and rentals
This combination appears to be resonating strongly with both riders and drivers.
Driver-Centric Approach
Bharat Taxi places significant emphasis on driver empowerment. During the early rollout, drivers are reportedly not charged any commission, allowing them to earn more per trip. The cooperative structure aims to give drivers a greater stake in the platform’s long-term success.
This approach contrasts with existing platforms where commission rates and incentive structures are frequent points of contention.
Nationwide Rollout Plans
The platform is expected to roll out nationally in early 2026. The current user acquisition push is seen as a preparatory phase to build a strong customer and driver base before scaling operations across multiple states and cities.
A New Challenger In Ride-Hailing
With tens of thousands of users joining daily, Bharat Taxi is emerging as a serious contender in India’s crowded mobility market. Whether it can sustain this growth and convert early interest into consistent service quality will be critical once full operations begin.
