Home / Citizen-owned

Owned by the people who ride it.

TransRapid is India's first citizen-led green public transport initiative — a public enterprise owned by individuals, families, and the diaspora across Kerala, not a private fleet operator.

The ownership model

A public-good enterprise, owned by Keralites.

TransGreen is envisioned as a company whose shareholders are citizens across Kerala and the diaspora — individuals, families, and resident associations — participating as co-owners of the company that runs the service.

Owned by citizens

Designed for citizens, families, resident associations, and the diaspora to participate as shareholders and co-owners of the enterprise.

Professionally managed

A board with deep experience across public transport, urban mobility, and cooperative operations. Public-good in purpose, professionally run.

Dual value

Shareholders share the long-term value of the enterprise; the public gets safe, affordable, high-quality transport.

Any participation in ownership happens only through a formal statutory process. To learn more, please contact the company directly.

Vision & mission

Vision

To be Kerala's most trusted citizen-owned operator of green public transport — delivering fast, reliable, affordable, climate-friendly mobility that belongs to the people it carries.

Mission

We exist to:

  • Deploy and operate electric buses at scale on Kerala's national-highway corridors.
  • Deliver a superior passenger experience through seamless facilities and technology.
