CabBazar: Online Outstation Taxi Booking in India

CabBazar is an online cab booking platform operating in India that allows you to hire outstation taxi services, one-way trips, hourly chauffeured car rentals for local use, and airport transfers. The company presents itself as a provider of chauffeured taxi services in over 3000 cities with a network of 2.5 lakh (250,000) verified drivers.

Taxi Services Offered

CabBazar's offering is organized into four main categories:

• Outstation taxi: round trips with multiple destinations and stops according to the customer's plan, including sightseeing at the destination. The price includes driver expenses and night charges, with no additional costs for the driver's accommodation or meals.
• One-way trip: fare with no return cost, with one pickup point and one destination point. On popular routes, the price includes toll and state taxes.
• Local hourly rental: packages of 2 hours/20 km, 4 hours/40 km, 8 hours/80 km, and 12 hours/120 km for local sightseeing, business trips, weddings, shopping, and other uses.
• Airport taxi: transfers from the airport and to the airport, with an option for assured luggage and confirmed booking.

Pricing and Billing Conditions

The company states that the price includes fuel, driver (with no additional food or logistics expenses), and night charges, with no surcharges for driving at night. Customers can choose a fare that includes toll and state taxes or the lower fare excluding them. An additional 5% GST applies. Parking expenses, if any, are borne by the customer at actual cost. The company highlights transparent billing, with no hidden charges or overpricing, and a minimal advance payment.

Booking and Customer Service

Bookings can be made up to one hour in advance, although the company recommends booking a day ahead to avoid last-minute rush. Car and driver details are typically shared within minutes after booking and, in exceptional cases, up to two hours before departure. There is 24x7 customer service to resolve pickup issues; if the assigned driver cannot show up, the company can arrange an alternative taxi or driver and, in exceptional cases where the service cannot be provided, the advance payment is refunded.

Fleet and Travel Experience

CabBazar describes a large fleet available in all seasons and on all routes, with professional, verified, and trained drivers who are friendly. Vehicles are presented as clean, sanitized, and odor-free after each trip. The company offers assured luggage space, either in a roof carrier or trunk, and allows traveling with pets (dogs, cats, and birds).

The platform promotes frequent intercity routes, including Bangalore–Ooty (280 km, about 6.5 hours), Mumbai–Shirdi (242 km, about 4.8 hours), Delhi–Manali (540 km, about 12 hours), and Delhi–Haridwar (210 km, about 5.5 hours).
