• Once the details are submitted, students will get the information about their ride on their mail id or on the official link.

IITians also invite Alumni and Volunteers to help with the rides. There is an option for volunteering on the website, too. They can help the students in two ways- either by driving the students themselves to the exam center or by making arrangements for students to travel.

The students have mainly developed the website to help students who are facing transport issues. However, it does not promise to ensure service availability. The admin of the portal has asked the students appearing for the exams to keep an alternative option ready to reach the exam center on their own in case of any eventuality.
