Save Rs 5,000 by carpooling, say app makers

HYDERABAD: In recent years, air pollution has been the sole cause of deaths for over a million in India. Our roadways have literally led a path to our untimely destruction by suffocating the planet. We must be on our guard and come with ideas to improve and better our conditions. One way to save resources, restrict emissions and save time is by carpooling.

And sRide has got that part covered for us! sRide claims to be India’s first ever app based carpooling system that has currently been functioning in six major cities (Hyderabad, Pune, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Chennai and Mumbai).

The app focusses on corporate users who travel everyday to work either as a car-owner or a rider. It builds communication between people from different walks of life commuting to same destination, helping them foster a more personal relationship and then guiding them to carpool at much cheaper rates than other services. The service has helped employees save upto Rs 5,000 a month by using this initiative.

Further, it has also been responsible for reducing traffic significantly as the numbers of solo drivers have lessened on the road. The rides are cost effective at just Rs 3.5/km and the total amount can be transacted through a PAYTM wallet. You can download the sRide app from playstore and enjoy many more from the service.
