Their take-home income after costs of lease payments, fuel, and maintenance often averages only a few hundred rupees per day. Blowhorn is building better processes for managing the market and ensuring that drivers’ utilization increases, which in turn will improve their earnings and in turn their livelihoods. They have 2000+ drivers on the platform whose income has increased by ~20%.
