Carpooling in India — FAQs

What is Rodshare?

Rodshare is India's trusted carpooling marketplace where verified drivers offer empty seats to passengers traveling the same route. Drivers list their existing trips with a date, time, and per-seat fare; passengers search by route and book a seat. Available across all 28 Indian states and 8 union territories.

Is carpooling legal in India?

Yes. Private, non-commercial cost-sharing — where a driver splits fuel and toll on a route they're already driving — is legal across India. Rodshare drivers offer their own existing trips; they are not commercial taxi operators, so no commercial permit is required.

How much does a carpool ride cost on Rodshare?

Fares are auto-calculated from the route distance, the vehicle category, and the seats offered. Drivers cannot inflate the suggested fare. Typical intercity per-seat fares range from ₹3–₹6 per kilometre, much lower than booking a private cab.

How are drivers verified?

Every Rodshare driver completes KYC — government photo ID, driving licence, and a live selfie. Verified drivers carry a shield badge on their profile, and riders can see their rating, total completed rides, and reviews before booking.

Can I cancel a Rodshare booking?

Yes. Cancellations made well before departure are free. Cancellations close to the ride time carry a small fee — same rules apply to both drivers and passengers. The fee is shown before you confirm the cancellation.

Is Rodshare safe?

Rodshare combines KYC-verified drivers, real-time location sharing during the ride, two-way ratings after every trip, and 24x7 support. Passengers also see vehicle details, the driver's verified profile, and a unique boarding OTP before the ride starts.

Which languages does Rodshare support?

Rodshare's web and mobile apps support five languages: English, हिन्दी (Hindi), اردو (Urdu), العربية (Arabic), and नेपाली (Nepali). The interface switches direction automatically for RTL languages.

How do I book a carpool ride on Rodshare?

Search your route on Rodshare, pick a date, and browse available rides. Each listing shows the driver's verified profile, vehicle, departure time, and per-seat fare. Tap 'Book' and pay online or settle in cash with the driver — your seat is confirmed instantly.

How do I offer a carpool ride on Rodshare?

Download the Rodshare app, complete KYC once (takes under 5 minutes), add your vehicle, then post a ride with your route, date, departure time, and price per seat. Passengers will book seats on your trip and you share the fuel and toll cost.

What is the difference between Rodshare and Ola/Uber?

Ola and Uber are on-demand commercial taxi services. Rodshare is a carpooling marketplace — drivers post trips they are already making and share the cost with co-passengers. There is no professional driver; the person driving is going the same way you are. Seat fares on Rodshare are typically 40–60% cheaper than a private cab on the same route.

Does Rodshare work for intercity travel between states?

Yes. Rodshare is built for intercity travel. Drivers regularly post rides on corridors like Delhi–Jaipur, Mumbai–Pune, Bengaluru–Chennai, Hyderabad–Vijayawada, and hundreds more across every Indian state. Simply search your city pair to see live rides.

Is there a Rodshare mobile app?

Yes. The Rodshare app is available on Android (Google Play). An iOS version is in development. The full carpooling experience — posting rides, booking seats, real-time location, chat, and payments — is available on the app and on the web at rodshare.com.

How does Rodshare calculate the fare?

The suggested fare is calculated using the road distance between pickup and drop-off, the vehicle category (hatchback, sedan, SUV), and the number of seats offered. The platform prevents drivers from setting fares higher than the suggestion. Passengers pay only the per-seat amount shown.

Can I use Rodshare for daily office commute carpooling?

Yes. Rodshare supports recurring daily commutes, not just one-off intercity trips. Office commuters in cities like Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, Pune, and Hyderabad use Rodshare to split fuel costs on fixed daily routes to tech parks, business districts, and suburbs.
