2. LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1. Background of the company

The concept of carpooling started in Bangalore by OLA and UBER

through their applications. But as per the Karnataka Govt. cab service
and the carpooling service is not allowed on a same platform, then ola
and uber had to stop their service.
Then Quick Ride Launched in September 2015 by KNM Rao, Subhro
B. Chakraborty and Shobhana BN, Quick Ride creates a totally separate
platform for carpooling. And now as per the quick ride report they are
getting more than 60000 rides in a day in Bangalore.

KNM RAO; CEO

2.2. Features of the product

Quick ride produces an application which provides a platform to

connect two office goers who wants to take a ride and who wants to
give a ride to control and reduce the traffic in Bangalore.

13 | P a g e
 There are various features of the application, we can divide them in
three parts.

1. PLAN
• Enter from & To location
• Select the time

2. CHOOSE
• Check route match %
• Compare carpool givers
• Sent invite

3. COMMUTE
• Track ETA
• Check in ride
• Give feedback

2.3. Marketing strategies

In terms of marketing Quick ride mainly follows the new trends of

marketing, the social media marketing. They provide the advertisement
through various social media platforms like facebook, Instagram to
reach more and more people vary easily.

Rather than that they organize various promotional events in different

IT parks to reach more people by a one to one conversation and guide
them how to use the application and make them to join the company
through registering the application.

EVENTS IN VARIOUS IT PARKS

2.4. Competitors
Quick rode doesn’t have such direct competitors in the market still there is
some companies who also started providing the same service recently.
Name of some competitors are:
Coyatri, Sride, Zify, Poolmycar, Carpooling.com, blablaCar

15 | P a g e
2.5. Government Policies
To prevent carpooling from turning into a commercial activity, the
transport ministry is reportedly working on guidelines to keep
carpooling by private vehicle in check.

The Centre wants to ensure that the individuals opting to earn from
carpooling, work on a no-profit, no-loss model. The authority wants
these operators to split the cost, rather than turning carpooling into a
commercial activity.

The transport ministry has also restricted carpooling by private vehicles

through any other platform, except mobile apps. These mobile apps are
also recommended to roll out a KYC enabled system to verify the
vehicle owner and the rider.

Under the new guidelines, the vehicle owner will have to declare the
trip details before starting the trips. The government has also decided to
limit the maximum number of rides taken per day to four.

Moreover, the government also wishes to generate some revenue out of

carpooling. It plans to recommend carpooling aggregators to start
pursuing a model where state governments also get some revenue.

2.6. How to fit private carpoolers

To implement the new guidelines, all of the carpooling apps like Quick
Ride and BlaBlaCar will have to update their application. According to
reports, cab aggregators like Ola and Uber too will have to develop a
separate platform to allow private vehicle owners to operate, if it is not
possible with their existing model.

The central government has been supporting shared-mobility to reduce

congestion on the roads. One of the agenda items for the National Mission
for Transformative Mobility is vehicle pooling and the guidelines are said
to be largely the same.

16 | P a g e
 In July 2017, the transport ministry was concerned over NITI Aayog’s
suggestion of private vehicle carpooling. The ministry had clarified that
under the Motor Vehicles Act, private cars cannot be allowed to run as app-
based taxis.

Another issue raised by the ministry was the interest of the already existing
cab owners, whose business would be affected by the entry of private
vehicles. It had added that commercial vehicles have to pay higher duties,
toll taxes, insurance premiums, and other permit charges.

2.7. Limitation of my study

• In my reference I have prepared a structured questionnaire so it becomes
difficult to give the time for our study by respondents so we have to manage
according to their time.

• Some of the respondent’s response may have been different from reality as
they are in job stress.

• The main limitation of the study is sample size. I have collected my data
on a very small sample size of 200 respondents due to time constraint and
the are factor also. Moreover, the respondents are busy in their personal
activities, the interview could not be conducted in an uninterrupted manner.

17 | P a g e
 CHAPTER – 3
[CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK]

18 | P a g e
 CHAPTER: 3
3. CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

3.1. What is carpooling

Carpooling is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person
travels in a car, and prevents the need for others to have to drive to a
location themselves.

By having more people using one vehicle, carpooling reduces each

person's travel costs such as: fuel cost, toll and the stress of driving.
Carpooling is also a more environmentally friendly and sustainable way
to travel as sharing journeys reduces air pollution, carbon
emission, traffic congestion on the roads, and the need
for parking spaces. Authorities often encourage carpooling, especially
during periods of high pollution or high fuel prices. Car sharing is a
good way to use up the full seating capacity of a car, which would
otherwise remain unused if it were just the driver using the car.

Carpool commuting is more popular for people who work in places with
more jobs nearby, and who live in places with higher residential
densities. Carpooling is significantly correlated with transport
operating costs, including fuel prices and commute length, and with
measures of social capital, such as time spent with others, time spent
eating and drinking and being unmarried. However, carpooling is
significantly less likely among people who spend more time at work,
elderly people, and homeowners.

If two persons A and B would like to car pool, they must be owners and
drivers for private motor cars. They will then organize among
themselves as to who is to drive on which day or which route to follow
and so forth. Preferably A and B would alternate driving on a daily or
weekly basis, or on any other basis they prefer. There will not be any
charges of fees involved. Excluded from the definition are those who

19 | P a g e
 ride share but do not own a motor car; and those who own motor cars
ride share regularly but did not share driving. In these two cases,
payment of fees is usually involved.

3.2. History of carpooling in Bangalore

The concept of carpooling started in Bangalore by OLA and UBER

through their applications. But as per the Karnataka Govt. cab service
and the carpooling service is not allowed on a same platform, then ola
and uber had to stop their service.

Then Quick Ride Launched in September 2015 by KNM Rao, Subhro

B. Chakraborty and Shobhana BN, Quick Ride creates a totally separate
platform for carpooling. And now as per the quick ride report they are
getting more than 60000 rides in a day in Bangalore.

20 | P a g e
3.3. Advantages and Disadvantages

A. Advantages

❖ Reduced Parking Demand: Parking demand will be reduced by car-

pooling

❖ Reduce Travel Demand: The idea behind travel demand reduction is to

reduce congestion by decreasing the number of vehicle trips on the existing
road network, as opposed to expending road network. Travel demand
reduction focuses on maximizing the movement of people, not vehicles,
within the transportation system. This can be done by increasing the
number of persons in a vehicle, or by influencing the time of travel.

❖ Reduced Pollution: Decreasing the volume of vehicle trips are far less
costly than providing new transportation facilities and the decrease in the
number of trips will reduce vehicle-generated air pollution.

Benefits of Car-Pooling for Individuals:

➢ Reduced traveling expenses and the need for second car

➢ Improved travel time through use of transit lanes

Benefit of car-pooling for the community:

➢ Reductions in vehicle emissions

➢ Reduction in traffic volumes and congestion

21 | P a g e
 ➢ Provides an alternative, cost effective choice
➢ Improving the environment

Benefit for companies that arrange car pooling

➢ Maximizing use of employee parking

➢ Encouraging sociability between employees
➢ Reducing stress on driving to work
➢ Providing staff with a further benefit
➢ Improving company image

❖ Natural resource conservation: The resource impacts of automobile

production will decline. Cars are environmentally expensive to produce
even before they are driven one mile. Car-sharing recognizes this fact by
making more use out of fewer vehicles.

❖ Social justice: Transportation access for poor people and wealthy people
will become more equal. Poor people will be able to make car trips without
becoming car owners.

22 | P a g e
 B. Disadvantages of carpooling

• You won’t have much freedom or flexibility with your schedule and
activities.

Because there are several people traveling together, you usually have to
leave at the same time. So, if you want to do errands, go out for lunch, or
have other plans after work, it will be more difficult to do these since you
have a whole bunch of people to consider. Aside from that, if one person
is running late, everyone’s schedule will be affected, so being time
conscious is very important.

• You won’t have much privacy.

If you like to spend your travel time meditating or just being alone with
your thoughts, that will be pretty impossible when you’re in a car with a
handful of other people. Aside from that, when someone is sick, there is a
high chance you might become ill too.

• The designated driver is responsible for his passengers.

In case you get into an accident, the responsibility lies most heavily on the
driver. There is also additional pressure on the driver because that person
has to make sure everyone gets to their destination on time and safely.

If you are someone who doesn’t have a fixed work schedule or prefers to
have flexibility when traveling from and to your house, then a carpool
may not be for you. However, if you want to avoid public transportation
and not having to drive to work every day, then carpooling is the perfect
solution.

23 | P a g e
3.4. Difference between ride hailing and ride sharing

Transportation Network Companies (TNCs), like Uber, Lyft, and Via,

are often hailed as “the future of public transport” — providing a
customized, convenient solution that claims to take cars off the road.
Many describe these as ride-sharing or ride-hailing services — using
the two terms interchangeably. However, the two are different
experiences.

• Ride-hailing is when a rider “hails” or hires a personal driver to take

them exactly where they need to go. The transportation vehicle is not
shared with any other riders, nor does it make several stops along a
route.

• Ride-sharing, by contrast, is synonymous with carpooling. It is literally

the process in which a rider shares a vehicle with other riders. It is not
personal transportation, as the space is shared, and it will make stops to
pick up other riders.

Major TNCs do offer ride-sharing services, like UberPool and Lyft

Shared. This enables multiple passengers traveling in the same
direction to request a ride and share the same driver to their respective
destination(s). On the surface, this appears to be environmentally
sustainable.

3.5. Can carpool reduce emissions and congestion in Indian

cities

In response to the burgeoning problem of air pollution, cities around the

world have identified motor vehicles as a significant contributor to poor
air quality. To address this issue, cities are piloting measures to shift
people to public transport and restrict single occupancy vehicles in
urban centers. For example, several trials have been launched in Paris

24 | P a g e
 since December 2016, ranging from a move to make public transport
free to implementing vehicle restriction measures.
Indian cities have become notorious for poor air quality. A World
Health Organization study in 2016 showed that half of the 20 most
polluted cities in the world are in India. In December 2015, Delhi
recorded PM 2.5 at 295 microgram/m3 (as per System of Air Quality
and Weather Forecasting And Research) which is almost 15 times
higher than the World Health Organization safety limit of 20
microgram/m3. Since there is no formal mechanism for issuing
pollution alerts to citizens, the National Green Tribunal issued a
directive to warn people about the severe air pollution and
recommending reduction in spending outdoor time. In order to tackle
vehicular emissions, the Delhi government instituted a private vehicle
rationing scheme, known as the odd-even scheme, for a period of two
weeks each in January and April 2016.
Of all the measures, the vehicle rationing measures were highly covered
by the media. In response, a multitude of private and government led
carpool initiatives were set up including UberCommute and the Delhi
government’s Poochh-O Carpool app. Existing carpool platforms in the
National Capital Region such as BlaBlaCar and Orahi also saw a
significant jump in usage.

25 | P a g e
3.6. Future of the service
Bangalore is famous around the world as India’s technology capital and
the birthplace of its most innovative ideas. But visitors to the city are
often struck by another side of life there: the awful traffic.

The city is the sixth worst in the world for traffic jams, according to a
recent survey. Another showed India’s Silicon Valley was losing 600
million working hours a year to congestion, costing it 37 billion rupees
(over $500 million) each year in lost earnings. It’s a similar story
elsewhere in India’s cities, where one study suggests that almost half of
all drivers spend more than 12 hours a week stuck in their car.
Yet another survey found that three of the 10 worst cities for traffic
conditions were in India.

Bangalore and other Indian cities stand at the intersection of a global

urbanization trend – by 2050, 70% of the world will live in cities, up
from only 13% in 1900. That will put a tremendous strain on
infrastructure.

Breaking the gridlock won’t be easy, because even if we invest

hundreds of billions of dollars into infrastructure, we’ll struggle to bring
mass transit to everyone’s front door. In fact, according to Deloitte,
India’s 100 Smart Cities mission will require an investment of over
$150 billion over the next few years – a sum of money that governments
alone cannot pull together, especially in emerging economies, where
urbanization is at its fastest.

26 | P a g e
3.7. A game changer for cities
That may sound strange, but it’s not. Ride-hailing apps make it easy
for people to share their vehicles, getting more people into fewer cars.
Even better: it won’t cost the government any extra money, and it can
make an immediate impact. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called
the Smart Cities project a people’s movement. And to make it a
success we have to involve as many people as possible to collectively
work on smart solutions.

Of course, carpooling is not a new idea. People in India and elsewhere

have been doing it for decades. The difference now is that ridesharing
apps like Uber can instantly match passengers heading in the same
direction at the same time. Powered by technology, it’s a model that
works and can create impact at scale.

Over time, this could become a game-changer for cities, where

hundreds of thousands of people drive to work each day on their own.
In Delhi, more than 70% of private cars have only one passenger.
There are over 2.7 million private cars on the streets, with just 60,000
of them on mobility platforms like Uber.

Smarter cities today

Around the world, outdated rules that distinguish between professional
drivers (seen as good) and private drivers (bad) are holding back
carpooling. That’s even true when private drivers have been through a
background check, proven they are fit to drive and have insurance. By

27 | P a g e
 making sharing hard, governments end up forcing citizens into individual
car ownership – at huge public cost.

The good news is that there’s increasing momentum for reform, with more
and more cities introducing progressive regulations. In just over three
years, nearly 70 states and cities in the United States have made the leap,
and several states in Mexico and Australia have followed suit.

At the heart of these new rules is the belief that one citizen should be free
to give another citizen a ride across town, so long as there are regulations
to ensure that important safety and consumer-protection standards are met.

We now have the technology to make our cities more livable and less
congested. But reducing our dependence on cars requires a cultural shift as
much as a technological one.

[RESEARCH METHODOLOGY]

29 | P a g e
 CHAPTER: 4
4. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
4.1. Research design
I had selected descriptive research design because in this research I have
to know the existing fact about

“Comparative analysis of Quick ride with other cabs in Bangalore”

So, I need to study among the group of individuals to know their thought
process about the service.

4.2. Sample design

For the sample design I use the “Stratified sampling method” because
this company only focuses on a particular group of people in the society.
Mainly the corporate people. This is only for the safety reasons
according to the company officials.

So, I target only the people who works in any corporate office. And who
needs to travel every day.

4.3. Source of data

As I use the descriptive research method for the research design so I use
only the “Primary data” for the data collection. As I used to go to
various IT parks for the promotional activities of the company in the
time of my internship.

I took a sample size of 200 people to collect the data. Out of which 120
people use Quick ride as their daily office purpose.

30 | P a g e
4.4. Data collection tools
I use a set of Questionnaire to collect the data as a data collection tool.
Which is the best way to reach more people and take their thoughts. I
use only 10 questions for them because as my survey was in various It
parks all the employee are very busy on their schedule.

• Questionnaire
• Personal interview
