The Maharashtra government has warned app‑based aggregators that it will take action against them for failing to obtain licences by the September 1 deadline.
The Maharashtra government has issued a formal warning to app‑based aggregators, including ride‑hailing and food‑delivery services, after they failed to secure the required licences by the September 1 deadline.
The warning, released by the state transport department, states that non‑compliance will trigger enforcement actions, which could include fines, suspension of operations, or revocation of licences.
The deadline was part of a broader regulatory push to formalise the rapidly growing app‑based services sector and ensure consumer safety and tax compliance.
Aggregators are urged to submit the necessary documentation immediately to avoid penalties.
