Uber has increased fares by 12% in Delhi-NCR. The company has said that it has taken this decision due to oil prices. This is going to cost the passengers a lot and the increased fares will give relief to the cab drivers from the effect of a hike in fuel prices. Suppose if you were paying 200 rupees for a journey, then now you have to pay 224 rupees. Petrol in Delhi is being sold at Rs 105.41 per liter and diesel at Rs 96.67 per liter.
Fares increased on demand of drivers
Uber India and South Asia Head of Central Operations Nitish Bhushan has stated this. He said, “We listen to the feedback from the drivers and understand that the hike in fuel prices is a cause for concern. To help drivers deal with the hike in fuel prices, Uber has reduced the travel fare by 12% in Delhi-NCR. In the coming weeks, we will continue to track the movement of fuel prices and take further steps as needed."
