All rides of OneRyder will originate from Delhi and commuters can be dropped up to 15 kms from the borders of the city.
Customer are charged Rs 15 for the first km, followed by Rs 4 for every subsequent km and Rs 1 per minute of ride time.

Note
Uber and Ola had launched their service on pilot basis in Bengaluru but had to restrict service following the Regional Transport Authority terming the service illegal.
These companies could face similar hurdles in other cities as most transport authorities do not have clear regulations around operating two-wheelers as commercial vehicles
