Chandigarh Suspends inDrive's Licence for Six Months Over Regulatory Violations
The Chandigarh State Transport Authority has suspended the licence of Indsystems IT Private Limited, operator of the inDrive cab service, for six months due to violations of the Motor Vehicle Aggregator Rules, 2025. The suspension prohibits inDrive from operating cab and bike-taxi services in Chandigarh immediately. Authorities cited failures in driver welfare measures, fare structure compliance, and response to notices. Drivers and vehicle owners must cease operations under inDrive, with warnings of legal action for violations. Commuters are advised to use other authorised platforms.
