C.E. Info Systems, the company behind MapmyIndia Mappls, has strengthened its flagship navigation platform by rolling out multimodal public transport routing on the Mappls App. The latest update allows users to seamlessly access metro, rail, and bus route information directly within the app, marking a significant step toward smarter and more sustainable urban mobility in India.
With this enhancement, MapmyIndia Mappls positions itself as a truly comprehensive mobility platform that integrates both private and public transport options into a single, fully indigenous mapping and navigation ecosystem. The feature is already live on iOS and web platforms, while an Android rollout is expected shortly.
The public transport routing feature is currently available in several major and emerging Indian cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Chandigarh, Pune, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Nagpur, Indore, Patna, Lucknow, Kanpur, Agra, Jaipur, Kochi, and Bhopal. Users can now view routes, stations, stops, and interchange options, making it easier to plan efficient daily commutes and longer city journeys.
Serving more than 40 million users, Mappls has steadily evolved into a full-scale location intelligence and navigation solution. The newly added public transport data complements existing features such as turn-by-turn navigation, real-time traffic updates, intelligent routing, safety alerts, and live road insights. By bringing public transit information into the same interface, Mappls aims to simplify travel planning while encouraging wider adoption of mass transport systems.
The company’s emphasis on sustainability is central to this update. By making public transport routes more accessible and easier to understand, MapmyIndia Mappls seeks to reduce dependence on private vehicles, ease urban congestion, lower emissions, and contribute to cleaner, more liveable cities.
MapmyIndia Mappls’ “nation-first” philosophy continues to shape its technology development. While its mapping and location technologies meet global standards, they are built with an Indian-first approach. The company aligns closely with government perspectives on sensitive issues such as international border delineation and the non-identification of nationally important installations. This alignment has earned recognition at the highest levels and has driven rapid growth in its government business, which now contributes around 20 percent of the company’s gross revenue.
