New app for booking autos, cabs

A local company here has introduced a mobile application that enables users book autos and cabs without the hassles of waiting by the roadside or through the internet or phone calls.

Developed by NGA Technologies Pvt. Ltd, the AUTOnCAB app is a modern and new concept that caters to both commuters and drivers, and "makes the laborious process of calling an auto or a cab easy with a few simple taps on their smartphone," a company statement said.

"Passengers do not need to wait by the roadside and negotiate fares to hail autos or stay on-hold on the telephone while booking cabs. Once the app is downloaded on their smartphones, a few simple taps will get them the service quickly and easily," said Alok Sawhney, co-founder and chief executive officer, AUTOnCAB.

The users can download the app for free from the Google Play Store or the App Store for iPhone.

The company has introduced the facility at Saket and its adjoining areas in south Delhi and plans to roll out the service in other parts of the city soon.

The company plans to expand pan-India over the next 12 months.
