How to Start a Taxi Business in Delhi NCR in 2026 — Step by Step
The taxi business in Delhi NCR is booming. With millions of daily rides on Ola, Uber, and Rapido — plus corporate travel demand — there has never been a better time to start your own cab business. Here is a step-by-step guide from the experts at Micky Motors Taxiyan Da Adda.
Step 1 — Decide Your Business Model
Before buying a single car, decide which model suits you:
Option A — Single Driver Owner: You drive the taxi yourself. Low investment, maximum income for yourself.
Option B — Fleet Owner: You buy 2–10 taxis and hire drivers. Your income grows with every car you add.
Option C — Corporate Cab Service: You tie up with companies to provide employee transport. Stable monthly income.
Most beginners start with Option A and grow to Option B within 2–3 years.
Step 2 — Get Your Commercial Driving Licence
To drive a commercial vehicle in Delhi, you need a Transport (Heavy/Light Motor Vehicle) Licence. If you already have a private driving licence, you can upgrade it at your nearest Delhi RTO office.
Step 3 — Buy the Right Vehicle
For Delhi NCR taxi business, the best cars are:
Maruti Suzuki Dzire (CNG) — Most popular, lowest running cost
Hyundai Aura/ Prime sd — Comfortable and fuel efficient
Toyota Rumion/ Innova Crysta — Best for premium/corporate segment
Maruti Ertiga — Ideal for family trips and outstation travel
At Micky Motors, we stock all these models in both new and used condition at the best prices in Delhi NCR.
Step 4 — Get the T-Permit
A T-permit is mandatory for operating any commercial taxi. You can get it from the Delhi Transport Department. The process takes 15–30 days. Alternatively, buying a used taxi with an existing T-permit saves you this time and effort completely.
Step 5 — Register on Ola/Uber/Rapido/ MNC
Once your car and documents are ready, register on ride-hailing apps:
Ola: Download the Ola Driver app
Uber: Visit Uber’s driver signup page
Rapido: For bike taxi and cab both
You can also tie up directly with travel agents for airport transfers and outstation trips — often more profitable than app-based rides.
Step 6 — Get Insurance and Finance in Order
Commercial vehicle insurance is different from personal car insurance and is mandatory. At Micky Motors,
we help you with both insurance and finance so your car is road-ready from day one.
