New Delhi: Taxi service app Uber has decided to increase its fare rates. Uber has said that they will continue to track fluctuations in fuel prices and will take further steps as necessary. In fact, the prices of petrol, diesel and CNG have increased very rapidly in the country in the past. This is the reason why cab drivers associated with Uber and Ola were constantly demanding to increase the cost of trips. In such a situation, now the company has taken a big decision.
Drivers had demanded
Considering this demand of the drivers as justified, the Uber company has accepted their point. The company has now increased the price of every ride by up to 12 percent. While issuing his statement in this matter, UBER’s Asia and India Head Nitish Bhushan has said that the company can understand the feedback given by its drivers. They are worried that oil prices have suddenly increased significantly. To help our drivers, we are increasing the trip price in Delhi-NCR by 12%. We will keep an eye on oil prices going forward and will take more decisions if needed.
Decision taken after strike
Let us tell you that this decision was taken when the drivers of both the leading taxi service app Ola and Uber went on strike. Recently, the drivers went on strike against both the companies in protest against not increasing the price. Uber has gone a step ahead and has increased the prices by up to 12 percent on its behalf.
