How do the four pay models work?
Percentage of revenue
The driver gets a fixed share of what the vehicle earned that day. At 30%, Ravi’s ₹3,450 Uber day pays him ₹1,035. This is the most common arrangement for cabs on Uber and Ola because both sides share good days and slow ones.
Slab
You set a daily revenue slab and two rates. Below the slab, the lower rate applies to the whole day. At or above it, the higher rate applies to the whole day. With a ₹3,000 slab at 25% and 32%:
- ₹2,800 day: ₹2,800 × 25% = ₹700
- ₹3,450 day: ₹3,450 × 32% = ₹1,104
It gives a driver a clear reason to put in the extra trips that cross the slab.
Daily rent
The driver pays you a fixed amount each day and keeps whatever the vehicle earns above it. With ₹1,800 rent on a ₹3,450 day, you get ₹1,800 and the driver keeps ₹1,650. Common for autos and for cabs where the driver handles bookings.
Monthly salary
A fixed salary, spread over 26 working days. ₹18,200 a month is ₹700 a shift, whatever the revenue. Common for lorries, trucks, vans and buses, and for owners who want the earnings risk on their side.
What Gaadi Tracker does with the rule
Set one rule per driver in the Owner app. Each shift the driver records is costed with the rule in force when that shift started. If you change a rule, it applies from the next shift, and earlier shifts keep the old one, so past hisab doesn’t move. You can also back-date a rule to a chosen date.
