Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], July 17: inDrive, the global mobility platform known for its fair-price, freedom-of-choice model, announced the launch of inDrive Toto Quick in Kolkata, a new ride category built for the city's everyday travel, giving passengers one more way to get around town, quickly and on their own terms.
Toto Quick offers doorstep-to-destination rides for up to four passengers, with fares starting at ₹35-40. Passengers can view nearby drivers, negotiate the fare, and choose based on price, rating and experience, while drivers remain free to accept the rides that suit them. Built around Kolkata's familiar toto culture, the service brings greater transparency and choice to everyday local travel without replacing it with rigid, algorithm-set pricing.
The launch reflects inDrive's broader philosophy: that mobility should give people a say in what they pay, not have it dictated to them. With Toto Quick, that same peer-to-peer bargaining model that powers inDrive's cab, and moto categories now extends to Kolkata's iconic e-rickshaws.
"Kolkata already knows how to negotiate a fair ride. The toto has always run on trust and a bit of back-and-forth between driver and passenger. With Toto Quick, we're simply bringing that everyday habit into the app, giving people another quick and reliable way to get around the city, with complete transparency on price, rating and experience before they even get in." said Avik Karmakar, Country Manager, India, inDrive.
Toto Quick is live now on the inDrive app for passengers across Kolkata.
