Consequently, Uber is now targeting India after losing China to Didi. This will definitely lead to a clash between Uber and Didi because Ola, an Indian online transportation network company, has Didi as one of its core investors. The later invested about $3o million in Ola last year. This deal boosted Ola’s profile in the 12 million dollars’ worth India ride-hailing services industry.
This transaction may be bad news in India especially for Ola as Uber plans to invest massively in the country.
