What "near Electronic City" actually means
When you call, dispatch sends the nearest available unit and every ambulance is GPS-tracked, so you can be told where the vehicle is instead of being told to wait.
We will not put a number of minutes on this page. Anyone who does is guessing. The honest answer depends on where the closest free ambulance happens to be at that moment, whether you are on the Hosur Road side or deeper inside a phase, and what the elevated road and service roads look like at that hour. Ask on the call what is available at that moment.
We cover Electronic City Phase 1 and Phase 2, Bommasandra, and the stretches along Hosur Road, as part of our Bengaluru operations.
Which ambulance to ask for
If you are not sure of the category, describe the patient when you call and ask what is available. It helps to know what exists:
- BLS ambulance (Maruti Eeco) — oxygen-equipped basic life support with a stretcher. The fare is worked out for your route and shown on the booking page before you confirm.
- BLS ambulance (Tempo Traveller) — oxygen-equipped basic life support with a stretcher, on a Tempo Traveller. The final fare is calculated using the applicable current pricing rules and shown before booking confirmation.
- ALS ambulance (Tempo Traveller) — advanced life support: ventilator, cardiac monitor, suction, infusion pumps, trained paramedic. The final fare is calculated using the applicable current pricing rules and shown before booking confirmation.
- ACLS / cardiac ambulance (Tempo Traveller) — defibrillator, cardiac and multi-parameter monitoring, ventilator, critical-care paramedic. The final fare is calculated using the applicable current pricing rules and shown before booking confirmation.
- NICU ambulance (Tempo Traveller) — newborn and premature infant transfers with neonatal transport equipment and trained staff. The final fare is calculated using the applicable current pricing rules and shown before booking confirmation.
All of these can be run with AC. Air conditioning is one of the factors that goes into the fare, which is calculated using the applicable current pricing rules and shown before booking confirmation.
How the fare is worked out
Fares are distance-based. The figure is interpolated from a slab table using the actual road distance for your trip, and it is shown to you before the booking is confirmed. So a run from Phase 1 to a hospital a few kilometres away and a run across the city to the north are not the same price, and you see which one you are agreeing to.
The vehicle you need, your pickup and drop points, the road distance actually travelled and what the trip requires all decide the amount. For your specific pickup and drop, either book at /book and read the fare on screen, or call and ask — the applicable fare is confirmed before the vehicle moves.
Planned transfers and discharges
Not every ambulance call is an emergency. Hospital-to-hospital transfers, discharge transport and scheduled treatment trips can be booked in advance, online or by phone. If the patient needs oxygen, a ventilator or monitoring during the trip, say so when booking — it changes the vehicle and the fare.
Journeys out of Bengaluru
Bengaluru is our verified operating city. Intercity road journeys from Electronic City are arranged on request rather than run as fixed routes, so call and describe the destination and the patient's condition and we will tell you what can be organised. Air ambulance and train transport are handled as enquiries too, not instant bookings — those need coordination at both ends.
If there has been a death
Separate vehicles, and no confusion about it. Body shifting is available in a Maruti Eeco, and there is also a Tempo Traveller body shifting ambulance. Both are distance-based in the same way, and neither is offered with AC. The final fare is calculated using the applicable current pricing rules and shown before booking confirmation.
If relatives are travelling and the family needs time, a freezer box can be delivered and set up at home. In Bengaluru the normal box, the standard box and the VIP digital box are quoted by duration: 4–12 hours, 24 hours, and the longer durations of 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours, which include embalming. Delivery above the ground floor is charged floor-wise for the normal and standard boxes — 1st, 2nd, 3rd and above 3rd floor — while the VIP digital box is quoted for the ground floor. The final fare is calculated using the applicable current pricing rules and shown before booking confirmation. Freezer boxes are arranged by phone or WhatsApp, not through the booking app.
What we will not do
We will not promise an arrival time. We will not give medical advice over the phone or tell you which hospital to go to. We will not advise you on death registration paperwork or statutory procedure — ask the hospital or the authority concerned. What we will do is tell you plainly what vehicle is available, where it is, and what it will cost, and then move.
Call +91 99868 44442, or WhatsApp +91 88840 92777.
Common questions
How quickly can an ambulance reach Electronic City?
We do not publish arrival times, because a fixed number would be a guess. It depends on where the nearest available unit is when you call and on traffic on Hosur Road and the service roads at that hour. Call +91 99868 44442 and dispatch will tell you honestly, and you can track the vehicle on GPS once it is assigned.
What does an ambulance from Electronic City to a city hospital cost?
Fares are distance-based and interpolated from a slab table using the actual road distance, so the amount depends on your exact pickup and drop, the vehicle you need and what the trip requires. The final fare is calculated using the applicable current pricing rules and shown before booking confirmation.
Do you cover Bommasandra and the Hosur Road stretch as well as Phase 1 and Phase 2?
Yes. Electronic City Phase 1 and Phase 2, Bommasandra and the Hosur Road corridor are all part of our Bengaluru coverage, 24 hours a day.
Can I book an ambulance in advance for a hospital discharge?
Yes, and it is better to. Book online at /book or call, give the date, time, pickup and drop, and say whether the patient needs oxygen, monitoring or a ventilator during the journey — that decides the vehicle and the fare.
Can you take a patient from Electronic City to another city?
Bengaluru is our verified operating city; intercity journeys are arranged on request rather than offered as fixed routes. Call with the destination and the patient's condition and we will tell you what can be organised, including air or train transport, which are handled as enquiries.
There has been a death at home in Electronic City. What should I call for?
Ask for body shifting, not an ambulance. There is a Maruti Eeco body shifting vehicle and a Tempo Traveller body shifting ambulance, both distance-based. If the family needs to wait for relatives, a freezer box can be delivered and set up at home, quoted by duration with floor-wise delivery charges. The final fare is calculated using the applicable current pricing rules and shown before booking confirmation. Freezer boxes are arranged over phone or WhatsApp.
