Union Cooperation Amit Shah on Monday said the newly launched cooperative cab service Bharat Taxi will guarantee a minimum base rate per kilometre for all drivers on its platform, asserting that existing ride-hailing aggregators had deliberately avoided setting such a floor to maximise corporate profits at the expense of workers.
Addressing a town hall interaction with cab and auto drivers from Delhi-NCR and Gujarat, Shah said the cooperative ride-hailing platform would return 80 per cent of profits to drivers based on kilometres driven, with the remaining 20 per cent retained as cooperative capital.
“I asked all three companies whether they had set a minimum base rate for their drivers. They said no,” Shah told the gathering during the 40-minute interaction.
“We will not do this. Whatever business you do, your minimum should be fixed. And whatever is more than that has to come back to you.”
