Retail bookings rise and fall with seasons. Corporate contracts — with companies, hotels, hospitals, colleges and factories — bring steady, repeat work and help keep cars busy on weekdays. But corporate clients expect professionalism: proper invoices, reliable vehicles and accountability. Here's how to win them.
Who needs corporate taxi services
- Companies and factories: executive travel, client pickups, airport transfers, auditor and buyer visits.
- Hotels and guest houses: guest airport transfers and sightseeing.
- Hospitals: patient and visiting doctor transport, staff travel.
- Colleges and coaching institutes: guest faculty, events, student trips.
- Travel agents and event planners: overflow vehicles.
Get your paperwork ready
Corporate buyers check compliance. Prepare:
- Business registration and PAN; GST registration with proper tax invoices (many companies require it).
- Commercial registration, permits, fitness and insurance for every vehicle.
- Driver licences and police verification.
- A company profile PDF: fleet, years in business, clients served, contact persons.
Pricing models
| Model | Suits |
|---|---|
| Per trip rate card | Occasional airport and outstation trips |
| Monthly dedicated vehicle | Executives or daily use; fixed km/hours with extra charges |
| Credit account with monthly billing | Hotels and companies with frequent bookings |
Agree on payment terms in writing; credit periods affect your cash flow.
How to approach clients
- Start local: list factories, hotels, hospitals and offices within your service area.
- Find the right person: admin manager, HR, front office manager or travel desk.
- Offer a trial: handle a few trips at standard rates and prove reliability.
- Use LinkedIn to reach admin and HR heads at larger companies.
- Ask for referrals once you're performing well.
Service standards that keep contracts
- Driver and car details sent before every trip.
- Punctuality — corporate clients rarely forgive late airport pickups.
- Clean cars, uniformed and courteous drivers, no smoking.
- One point of contact who answers quickly.
- Accurate monthly invoices with trip details.
Your website matters
Admin managers check your website before calling. A professional site with a "Corporate Services" page, fleet photos, compliance details and an enquiry form makes you look like a serious partner. See taxi website must-haves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need GST for corporate clients?
Many corporate clients prefer or require GST invoices. Consult your CA about registration based on your turnover and clients.
How do I price a monthly dedicated car?
Calculate monthly vehicle cost, driver salary, fuel for the agreed km, maintenance and margin; charge extra km/hours separately.
What if a car breaks down during a corporate trip?
Have a backup vehicle plan and inform the client immediately — how you handle problems decides whether you keep the contract.
