The Ministry of Road Transport and motorways has issued the guidelines of the aggregator of the motor vehicle and explains that the government governments can allow the use of non-transport motorcycles (ie private two-wheelers) for transporting passengers via aggregator platforms if they choose to allow it.
According to Clausule 23 of the updated guidelines, states can allow the aggregation of such motorcycles under section 67 (3) of the Motor Vehicles Act, and they can also raise daily authorization costs on a daily, weekly or two -week basis.
According to the new guidelines, the aggregators must also meet the conditions of safety, rider onboarding, insurance and others.
This is at a time when the app-based aggregators are involved in ongoing procedural matters such as in Karnataka, where the Supreme Court has forbidden the Bicycle Taxi services in the State in the absence of legislation. Aggregators such as Rapido, Ola, Uber have paused the operations in the state and are in discussion with the state government.
In A Statement, Rapido Welcomed the Move and Said, “We Welcome the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways, Government of India’s Decision to Operationalize Clause 23 of the New Motor Vehicles Aggregator Guidelines, 2025, What Permits The aggregation of Non-Transport. The State’s Powers Under Section 67 (3) of the Motor Vehicles Act, is a Milestone in India’s Journey Toward a Viksit Bharat-a, self-reliant and Including India ”.
“By recognizing non-transport engine bikes as a means for shared mobility, the government has opened the door for more affordable transport options for millions, especially in disadvantaged and hyperlocal areas,” the statement added.
