Namma Yatri

What Namma Yatri does

Namma Yatri is a community-led open mobility platform operated by Moving Tech Innovations Ltd, headquartered in Bengaluru. Founded in 2022, the company runs a zero-commission ride-hailing service for auto-rickshaws and cabs, built on the open-source Beckn Protocol that powers India's ONDC (Open Network for Digital Commerce). The platform serves individual urban commuters, driver-partners, corporate enterprises, and state governments across 8+ Indian cities including Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi-NCR, Tiruchi, Mangaluru, Kalaburgi, and Kerala, with a recent expansion into the Netherlands through the acquisition of Automicle Holding BV. As of early 2026 the platform had facilitated over 150 million trips, served more than 7 million users, and onboarded 400,000+ drivers, enabling over Rs 2,500 crore in driver earnings through its zero-commission economics.

The core product portfolio includes the Namma Yatri consumer app, Namma Transit (a real-time multimodal journey planner integrating metro, bus, auto, and cab services using GTFS open data), Corporate Ride Benefits (enterprise mobility via OneBanc integration), embedded driver health insurance through Covrzy, and backend technology infrastructure for state-backed mobility platforms such as Bharat Taxi, Yatri Sathi (West Bengal), Odisha Yatri, and Kerala Savaari. The technology stack is anchored on Beckn Protocol-based open interoperability, enabling discovery and booking through multiple ONDC-integrated buyer apps without proprietary lock-in, and integrates with Google Maps for metro ticketing.

Namma Yatri generates revenue through three primary streams: (1) driver subscription fees of Rs 9 to Rs 90 per day depending on vehicle type, replacing platform commission; (2) SaaS and platform-licensing fees from state-government mobility platforms; and (3) corporate mobility transaction and integration fees through the OneBanc partnership, targeting India's estimated $2.5–3 billion corporate local transport market. The company has raised approximately $15.4 million across a $11M pre-Series A round in July 2024 (Blume Ventures, Antler, Google, at a $55M valuation) and a $4.4M extension in March 2026 led by Juspay founder Vimal Kumar.

Revenue model

1. Driver Subscription Fees: Drivers pay a flat daily/periodic subscription fee (Rs 9 to Rs 90 per day depending on vehicle type) for full platform access without any commission deducted from rides. This is the primary revenue stream enabling the zero-commission positioning.
2. SaaS/Platform Fees (State Government Platforms): Revenue generated from providing backend technology infrastructure to state-backed mobility platforms like Bharat Taxi, Yatri Sathi, Odisha Yatri, and Kerala Savaari. Governments prefer this model as it allows testing via short-term tenders before committing to long-term contracts.
3. Corporate Mobility Services: Enterprise travel and expense management solutions through OneBanc partnership, providing automated booking, policy compliance, invoicing, and reconciliation for employers. India's corporate local transport market is estimated at $2.5-3 billion annually.
