A group of autorickshaw drivers in Tamil Nadu have come together to set up a mobile application for customers to hail rides in accordance with the tariff fixed by the State government. The app, called ‘Sudesi’, allows autorickshaw drivers to claim the entire profit, as opposed to those of Corporate companies taking a major share of it, they said.

A total of 600 autorickshaw drivers had come together over a year ago, calling themselves Sudhandhira Meter Auto after working under other App-based vehicle aggregator services.
