For decades, hiring an outstation taxi in Tamil Nadu meant paying for a two-way round trip regardless of whether you planned to return or not. If you booked a taxi from Chennai to Trichy (330 km) to attend a family wedding or visit your hometown, you had to pay for 660 km, plus night halt charges, driver food batta, and return toll fees for an empty car driving back!
Seyon Drop Taxi changed the game completely by introducing verified one-way drop taxis across all major cities and towns in Tamil Nadu, Bangalore, and Pondicherry.
