  • Over 7 lakh Sarathis have joined the platform, while 37 lakh customers have already availed its services.
  • The platform will provide loans, insurance, fair earnings, and business expansion opportunities to Sarathis under the cooperative model.
  • Bharat Taxi aims to expand to more than 500 cities and towns across India within the next two years, with services launching soon in Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Lucknow, Chandigarh, Jaipur, and Kolkata.
