Travel for free in Gurgaon! Are you kidding me?
No kidding, it’s the new smart way of moving around the city. What makes this statement possible is the recent technological changes and entry of new startups, capable of wooing the city commuters. Who doesn’t like a free ride? Free stuff always attracts the attention of the Indian community. Youngsters are often aware about the various offers, coupon codes, and other promotions run by these new startups but my article is focused on highlighting the steps to be taken for a free or discounted ride by all.
Technically, the ride may be free or discounted depending upon the offers being promoted at that point in time. Let us get started.
You need a smart phone for a free or discounted ride.
Now, you need to determine whether you want to avail a short ride or a long ride. Let us call a short ride to be within Gurgaon and long ride to be outside Gurgaon.
Short Ride
Long Ride
For the sake of simplicity, let us say that you want a ride from your home (anywhere in Gurgaon) to Ambience Mall.
Download the Taxi for Sure (Taxi), Auto n Cab, Jugnoo Apps (Autos) and look for available coupons. Promotions usually offer Rs 100 off or 30% off. These companies are poor in service but for long distance trips but OK for short trips as drivers are most likely to come to your door step after a few tries.
You must board the Taxi for a short distance to keep the trip free, so:
Book till the nearest metro station, OR
Get down from the cab after a covering a short distance, end the journey and start a new trip from the same point so that the discount coupon can be reused. The driver will be more than happy to do this as he gets an additional trip.
Catch the metro from Huda City Centre to Sikanderpur Metro Station.
Change to Rapid metro at Sikanderpur Metro Station.
Get down at Micromax Moulsari Avenue.
Choose to walk for next 100 meters or take a Rupee 10 Rickshaw ride to Ambience Mall.
Follow the same route back by taking.
Helpful Tips & Facts
Experience of dealing with Jugnoo & Auto n Cab can be frustrating. These companies are very new and are unable to maintain control over the rowdy auto drivers.
It is advisable that you try getting a free ride only if you have sufficient time at hand.
Referring the App to a friend will get you money which can be used for another ride.
I don’t recommend the free ride if have to commute in an emergency.
(Taxi for Sure) drivers do not come to pick the passengers even for a confirmed booking if the distance is long.
Drivers have the liberty of not turning up only for a few rides after that they get penalized by the employer, so you can book a number of times if the driver does not show up or does not answer your call.
Drivers may not be available late night and so the free or discounted trip might not work.
Long Distance – For travelling long distances Uber is the best bet. The Uber Taxi provides the best in class service among all the Taxi operators. Uber offers first free ride using Coupon code zs9bs.
