Namma Yatri Plans To Foray Into US Cab Market In Partnership With Taxi Unions: Report

Namma Yatri is looking to enter the US market in partnership with American taxi unions to help them get an edge over platforms such as Lyft and Uber.
While the talks for a US foray are still in early stages, Namma Yatri’s focus still remains on strengthening its presence in India.
Fintech startup Juspay, which spun off Namma Yatri and other mobility apps into a separate entity earlier this year, will reportedly provide the funding for the US entry.
Namma Yatri declined to comment on Inc42’s queries on the plans to enter the US market.
Founded in 2022, Namma Yatri was launched by Juspay in partnership with Nandan Nilekani’s BECKN Foundation and backed by Bengaluru’s Auto Rickshaw Drivers’ Union (ARDU).
