+1 Indeed, one of the reasons for the current auto-slowdown in India appears to be the drastic decrease in benefits offered by Taxi aggregators, which is hitting taxi drivers hard. Can't complain, since taxis saturate the roads in Bengaluru already.

In Indiranagar (a popular, hip neighbourhood in Bangalore), you might have to wait for an hour to get an Uber or Ola, on weekday mornings too! Hence a lot of people are using Yulu (India's Bird).

Add HSR Layout to that list , too. I’ve started using a combination of Bounce( two wheeler point-to-point rental ) for <2km travel , public transport for longer distance travel and cabs as the last option.
