From Plate to Fame, ... • 23d

Recently, the Karnataka High Court imposed a ban on bike-taxi services like Uber, Rapido, and Ola in the state, stating that using white-board (private) vehicles for commercial passenger transport is illegal under the current legal framework. However, instead of shutting down completely, these companies came up with a smart and strategic workaround. They pivoted their services from passenger transport to parcel and delivery operations. By doing so, they’re legally allowed to operate, as transporting goods doesn’t fall under the same regulatory restrictions. This shift allows them to sustain their business, keep their riders employed, and maintain a presence in the Karnataka market. While the government works on drafting proper guidelines for bike-taxi services over the next few months, Uber and Rapido continue their operations under a new model—showcasing how adaptability and strategic thinking can help companies survive even under regulatory pressure.#uber #rapido #karnataka
