How Our Cab Tariff Structure Works

Our tariff is built around a single threshold: 350 kilometres covered in a day. Below that distance, you pay a fixed day rent plus a per-kilometre fuel charge on whatever distance you actually cover. Once a day’s travel crosses 350 kilometres, the booking switches to a flat per-kilometre fare with a separate driver allowance added on top. This two-slab structure exists so that a short local trip isn’t priced the way a long outstation run is, and a long outstation run isn’t loaded with a day rent that doesn’t reflect the ground actually covered.

Toyota Innova Hycross — Luxury Class

Our most booked vehicle. Below 350 km in a day, the day rent is ₹3,000 with a fuel charge of ₹15 per km. Above 350 km, the fare moves to ₹20 per km with a ₹500 driver allowance. Ideal for family tours, temple tours, airport transfers and long-distance travel.

Toyota Innova Crysta — Premium Class

Our executive choice. Below 350 km in a day, the day rent is ₹2,500 with a fuel charge of ₹14 per km. Above 350 km, the fare is the same ₹20 per km with a ₹500 driver allowance. Ideal for business travel, premium airport transfers and executive trips.

Working Out Your Fare: A Few Examples

A Kumbakonam to Thanjavur day trip with local sightseeing typically stays under 350 km, so it falls into the day rent slab. On the Crysta, that’s ₹2,500 plus ₹14 for every kilometre actually driven that day. A Kumbakonam to Chennai round trip usually crosses 350 km, so it shifts into the flat-rate slab: ₹20 per km on the full distance, plus the ₹500 driver allowance. Multi-day tours are billed per day using whichever slab applies to that day’s distance, so a two-day Navagraha circuit with shorter daily distances is billed differently from a single long-distance outstation run.

Tolls, parking charges and any state permits applicable to your route are confirmed separately at the time of quoting, so they’re visible to you before you travel rather than appearing as a surprise on the final bill.

What Affects Your Final Cab Fare

A few factors decide which slab and which vehicle suits your trip best. Distance is the primary one — anything likely to cross 350 km in a single day should be quoted on the flat per-km rate from the start rather than estimated against the day rent slab. Number of travel days matters for multi-day hires, since each day is calculated on its own distance rather than averaged across the trip. Vehicle choice affects the base numbers directly, with the Crysta typically working out more economical for standard trips and the Hycross recommended where ride comfort over long distances matters more. Route type also plays a role: a temple circuit with frequent short stops accumulates distance differently than a straight highway run between two cities, so it’s worth sharing your planned stops when requesting a quote rather than just the start and end points.

Getting an Accurate Tariff Quote

The fastest way to get an exact figure is to share your route, travel dates, number of days and the vehicle you’d prefer. We calculate the applicable slab, add the driver allowance where relevant, and confirm tolls and permits for your specific route, then send back a written quote with the total broken down line by line. This lets you compare our tariff against any other cab booking option on a like-for-like basis, rather than guessing at what’s actually included.
