“inDriver is Legal! We are expanding our business in Nepal”; Pavit Nand Anand

Imagine this: you’re rushing to go somewhere. You do not have your own vehicle and can not trust the public vehicle infrastructure in your city. The only option you have now is to hop on to ride-hailing services. You open your phone, and tap on your GO-TO app. However, it becomes almost impossible to find a rider in one go. You share this incident among your friends and they let you know that these days, everyone is hooked upon a new ride-hailing app. A new app named, “inDriver”.

inDriver is a ride sharing application that was launched in 2013 to tackle the inflexibility in taxi fares. The company got a new head start after closing a $150m investment status in early 2021. Since then, it has been rapidly expanding across major cities. Currently, the service is available across 39 cities and it has a user base of almost 100m. One would wonder why an international giant like this would expand its services in Nepal or Kathmandu in particular with a very small user base. That is still unknown. But, we do know how inDriver became a common name for users in Nepal.
