Kathmandu, Aug. 28
E-Cab Nepal, a digital platform offering online taxi booking
services, has expanded its operations in Lumbini Province.
According to Santosh Mandal, Managing Director of E-Cab Nepal, the service is
now available in Lumbini, Butwal, Bhairahawa, and Palpa. However, its official
launch will be made on Sunday.
Initially, drivers in these cities will not be charged any commission for using
the platform, said the company in a statement.
The company has also introduced a student-targeted programme called 'Bike Ours,
Income Yours,'. Through this initiative, E-Cab Nepal will provide bikes to
students, allowing them to earn an income by sharing a portion of the revenue
generated.
"E-Cab Nepal also offers an online booking service for passengers arriving
in Nepal from different countries, where they can schedule a private taxi
pickup at the airport in advance," read the statement.
Similarly, the platform provides parcel delivery services throughout the
Kathmandu Valley in partnership with Madads Agency.
To date, more than 10,000 taxis have been affiliated with E-Cab Nepal, the
company said.
