Important details

The Ride Giver can set a fare between ₹0–₹10 per KM. The default fare is ₹3.5 per KM. There is a 10% long-distance discount for travel exceeding 10 KM, calculated in slabs of 10 KM. Since different rides may have different INR-per-KM rates, the fare may vary for the same distance. The applicable fare is displayed to the Ride Taker before joining the ride.
