AIS 140 standard
MoRTH along with ARAI in India have framed the AIS 140 standard for Intelligent Transport Devices to bring safety and efficiency for all public transportation vehicles such as state transport buses, app based taxis, private passenger carrying buses, and non-app licensed taxis. The AIS 140 standard makes it mandatory from January 1, 2019 to install approved telematics devices in all commercial and public transport vehicles, new and old. This will provide a massive increase in telematics adoption in the already growing Indian market.
