Carpooling app for intercity travel and daily commutes in India
Share the ride!Share the cost!
CarYatri connects drivers who have available seats with passengers travelling the same way, whether between cities or across town to work. Drivers publish their journey, passengers book a seat, and everyone shares the cost of the trip.
One app for longer trips between cities and for the daily journey to work or college.
Intercity carpooling
Travelling to another city for work, a weekend or a family visit? Find a car going your way and share the cost of fuel and tolls, or offer the available seats in your own car. Drivers can add stop cities, so passengers along the route can join too.
For example: Delhi to Jaipur, Mumbai to Pune, Bengaluru to Mysuru, Chandigarh to Delhi, Ahmedabad to Vadodara.
Daily office commute
Share your daily ride to the office or college with people travelling the same way. Set the ride to repeat on your working days, and regular co-passengers can book the same seat each week.
For example: Noida to Gurugram, Whitefield to Koramangala, Thane to Andheri, Hinjewadi to Pune station.
If you travel the same route regularly, turn on Repeat every week and choose your days. CarYatri publishes the ride on those days, seven days in advance, until you turn it off. Regular passengers can find and book your seats each week.
Set up once. The route, time, seats and price stay the same on each day you choose.
Continues until you stop it. There is no need to publish the ride again each week.
Flexible. Skip a date or a week, edit the ride, or pause and resume it at any time from Recurring rides.
