M-TAXI www.m-taxi.in

M-TAXI was conceived in response to the growing challenges commuters face with public transport, particularly last-mile connectivity and traffic jams. The public transport options available with larger vehicles are ineffective in slow-moving traffic and are also expensive. Given this scenario, M-TAXI offers an on-demand app based and hailing 2-Wheeler taxi service for commuters across the board, which is quick, convenient and economical.

M-TAXI aims to make the life of an urban city dweller more livable and provide him with that extra productive time to make more out of his daily life.
