Using a taxi in India

[holidayindia]

G'day: Couple of questions about taxis:

1. Do they have meters or do you have to negotiate a fee each trip?

2. Apart from the trip fee, are there any other costs/taxes eg luggage.

Many thanks

1. They don't have meters in their taxis, they will charge according to your trip that how long journey to be travel in KM and maximum taxi drivers will charge to you according to km that 15 - 20 RS/- per km depends upon cars (You are hiring a Sedan, or a HatchBack or other simple taxi). Or somewhere you have to pay fix fair for special tours.
2. There is no extra/hidden fee excluding night charges. They will ask you these questions before visiting to your destination
i. how many days of tours your will be ii). how many passengers are travelling iii) booking of hotels by yourself or you need it from tour operator side. After getting your views they will give a price quote and if you get best deal then you can probably go with them otherwise you can choose any other option available in that area.

Cars such as Maruti Esteem, Maruti Omni, Mahindra Logan, Tata Indica and Tata Indigo are fairly popular among taxicab operators. The livery of the taxicabs in India varies from state to state. In Delhi and Maharashtra, most taxicabs have yellow-black livery while in West Bengal, taxis have yellow livery. Private taxicab operators are not required to have a specific livery. However, they are required by law to be registered as commercial vehicles.

According to Government of India regulations, all taxicabs are required to have a fare-meter installed. However, enforcement by authorities is lax and many cabs operate either without fare-meter or with defunct ones. In such cases, fare is decided by bargaining between the customer and the driver. Taxicabs face stiff competition from auto rickshaws, but in some cities, for example Mumbai, auto-rickshaws are banned in the main city district, thus giving taxicabs a monopoly.

I am generally not very confident of hiring a taxi in places that I am unfamiliar with. While travelling to Delhi , I took taxi from Hire Taxi to go to Agra, in May. It was a pleasant experience right from the great price, service, punctuality, ease of booking and everything else. The driver was very disciplined and surprisingly.
