Fares of radio cabs are more than ordinary cabs which term them under the category of luxury services. For any kind of luxury item of consumption, MAD (Money, Authority and Desire) is required. Though desire gets registered matter-of-factly, money and authority constitute the primary ingredients that drive demand. Increase in disposable income translates into heightened spending power at the hands of people, thereby acting as a potential driver for radio cabs' sector. Another factor that has led to the growth of radio cabs is that of influx of tourists. Tourists travel to unknown lands where they are not well conversant with the place. In a country where cabs have earned a name of cheats and tricksters, radio cabs cater to the security and safety aspects. Places like airports or railway stations are more populated by radio cabs since they register a high percentage of footfalls.

As India continue to witness stupendous growth in this sector, its logistics support gets translated into demand for radio cabs as a part of their employee benefits scheme. It should also be noted that even employees, who do not fall under the purview of such schemes, look at booking radio cabs for its comfort as well as availability. Finally, everything that gives momentum to an initiative is the primary outlook of the people. Today a particular product gets successful only after it gets accepted by the common man.

A change in mindset acts as the root cause behind the success of radio cabs and will continue to do so in future. While these factors can be termed as growth drivers, there are certain aspects that act as hindrances to the sector namely high fares, TRAI regulation on SMS caps and unavailability of parking space.
