AHA Taxis was started by three friends Shivam Mishra, Amit Grover, and Kunal Krishna. Launched in April 2015, Noida-based AHA Taxis is a one-way cab service provider for outstation purposes across India. The company follows something similar to an aggregation model,with vendors networking in more than 1,000 cities, and claims to have over 15,000 vendor networks at present. It has tied up with vendors having multiple cabs as well as with those who owns and drives their cabs. AHA Taxis considers its cost and availability of cabs as its main USP. The outstation taxi service provider’s average ticket size is Rs 2,500, and its per km price comes down to an average of Rs 9-10, including the surcharge, toll-tax, and other charges. The AHA Taxis app, which is available on both iOS and Android, lets users add the pickup and drop location, along with their name and mobile number. The journey details will be received by the user at least two hours before the travel time. A unique feature the company offers is that a user can also schedule a ride up to six months in advance. And as they company scaled, AHA Taxis sold 70 percent to EbixCash in 2018. EbixCash is a subsidiary of Ebix Inc, an international supplier of on-demand software and ecommerce services to the insurance, financial, healthcare, and e-learning industries.
