Odisha Yatri Introduces Non-AC Cabs

Bhubaneswar: Odisha Yatri, the state-backed mobility platform, has revolutionized budget travel with the launch of Odisha’s first-ever non-AC cabs—an industry-first initiative aimed at making daily commuting more economical without compromising safety and reliability. For the first time, riders in Bhubaneswar and Cuttack can now choose between AC and Non-AC cabs, enabling them to save on travel costs while enjoying the same trusted service. This move strengthens Odisha Yatri’s vision of fostering an inclusive, transparent, and commuter-friendly urban transport ecosystem, ensuring that students, officegoers, and daily commuters have access to safe, dependable, and pocket-friendly rides.

Odisha Yatri has swiftly become the preferred travel companion for thousands of urban commuters, and the introduction of non-AC cabs caters specifically to budget-conscious riders seeking an economical yet reliable transportation option. By offering lower fares while maintaining service quality, Odisha Yatri is ensuring that affordable mobility remains accessible to all.

As with all Odisha Yatri services, the non-AC cabs operate under its pioneering zero-commission model, allowing drivers to retain 100% of their earnings. This driver-first approach not only enhances livelihoods but also incentivizes superior service delivery. The result is a balanced and fair ride-hailing ecosystem where passengers enjoy reduced fares while drivers earn more, creating a win-win scenario for all stakeholders.

Despite being a budget-friendly alternative, non-AC cabs maintain the same high safety standards that define Odisha Yatri. Passengers benefit from real-time trip tracking, live ride sharing, and an integrated emergency response system with Odisha Police 112. Verified drivers, transparent pricing, and a commitment to passenger security ensure that affordability does not come at the cost of safety and convenience.

As Odisha Yatri continues to expand, its focus remains on developing innovative and commuter-centric mobility solutions. Future enhancements will include real-time public transport tracking, AI-driven safety features, and integrated multi-modal transport options for seamless connectivity. These advancements position Odisha Yatri as a key player in Odisha’s evolving urban mobility landscape.

“With non-AC cabs, Odisha Yatri is making daily travel even more affordable while upholding our values of safety and transparency. This initiative reflects our commitment to creating a smarter, more inclusive, and budget-friendly mobility ecosystem for Odisha,” said Dr. N. Thirumala Naik, Managing Director, CRUT.

Odisha Yatri is more than just an app—it is a movement toward a safer, smarter, and more accessible urban transport future. With every ride, the platform continues to redefine mobility in Odisha, one journey at a time.
