The driver and his assistant have fled the scene, police officer Praveen Kumar Parai told the Press Trust of India.
The injured passengers have been taken to a hospital in Aurangabad district.
Road accidents kill hundreds of Indians every year. Most are blamed on reckless driving, old vehicles and bad roads.
