Haryana’s New Aggregator Rules: What It Means For Delivery And Ride-Hailing Platforms?

Haryana has approved a strict new licensing regime for ride-hailing and delivery platforms, making state licences, local offices, and security deposits mandatory for companies like Ola, Uber and Rapido

The rules ban onboarding of new petrol and diesel vehicles from January 2026, pushing aggregators toward CNG and EV fleets, especially impacting delivery and bike-taxi platforms.

Haryana has capped aggregator commissions at 20%, mandated driver insurance and compliance checks, and introduced penalties of up to ₹1 Cr along with possible licence suspension or cancellation.

What began as a draft notification published in the Haryana Government Gazette in December last year has now become a law. 

The Haryana cabinet, chaired by chief minister Nayab Singh Saini, approved the rules for granting aggregator licences under the Haryana Motor Vehicles Rules, 1993, clearing the final version of the framework that was first floated for public comment last December. 

The cabinet approved the substitution of Rule 86A of the Haryana Motor Vehicles Rules, 1993, to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for app-based passenger aggregators and delivery service providers operating in the state.

The biggest headlines were dedicated to the approval of the clean fuel mandate. Aggregators and delivery platforms operating in Haryana will no longer be allowed to induct new petrol or diesel vehicles into their fleets after December 31, 2025. 

For companies like Ola, Uber, Rapido, Porter, and delivery-focused platforms operating in Haryana, these rules represent the most structured regulatory intervention the state has ever attempted in the gig-economy transport sector. 

This is important as Haryana’s biggest cities, Gurugram and Faridabad, are two of India’s most active markets for ride hailing and food delivery. Both sit within the National Capital Region, so these rules intersect with CAQM (Commission for Air Quality Management) directives that have already imposed strict emission constraints for operating in Delhi NCR.
