What is the nature and scale of platform operations in the app-based delivery services and taxi services sectors within various tier 1 and tier 2 cities in India? 2. [...] What are the socio-economic contexts shaping workers’ decisions around transitioning in and out of the platform workforce in the delivery and taxi sectors? 3. [...] Delhi-NCR and Mumbai were covered by the ILO in the 2019 survey, and therefore, were included in the list of cities for this survey as well to enable longitudinal analysis. [...] 8 Survey recruitment and data collection In the absence of official or publicly-available statistics around the socio-demographic profiles of workers in the app- based delivery services and taxi services sectors, the survey sample was purposive and non-representative. [...] To ensure heterogeneity in the sample, survey respondents were recruited from different neighbourhoods within each city, at different times of the day (peak and non-peak working hours), and different days of the week (peak and non- peak working days).
