Vihaan needs my taxi repaired to get back to work in Pune
Without my taxi Vihaan can't work; a $310 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my taxi. 7 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $310. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $310 goes:
• gearbox replacement (parts): $230
• Labor charges: $45
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
• Towing and inspection: $5
Thanks for reading all this.

Praying for you, Vihaan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
