Vinayaka City Taxi

At Vinayaka City Taxi, we run our operations from 105 Madivala. Our office is on the 3rd Main Road in MGR Layout, specifically in the Rupena Agrahara area. This part of Bangalore is always moving, and so are we. We have a small fleet of taxis that we coordinate from this little spot. It’s not much of an office, just a place to park some cars and keep the keys on a board. I spend a lot of time listening to the radio and talking to my drivers about where the traffic is. Madivala traffic is famous for being tough, so we are always busy trying to figure out the fastest ways to get around the back streets. We started with just one car and slowly added a few more over the years as we got more work. We don't have a big corporate structure or a manager. It’s just us and the drivers who are like family to us. The office can get a bit noisy with the main road so close by and the horns honking. Sometimes we have to deal with car repairs or flat tires at the last minute, which is just part of the job. Most of our customers are locals who need a ride to the airport or the railway station. We keep a handwritten ledger for all our bookings. If you are in Rupena Agrahara, you can stop by and book a ride for the next day. We don't do much online.
