Ola Cabs

Ola Cabs has now become the largest network of personal transportation options in India and is very popular in 22 Indian cities.

Due to the economic repercussions of COVID-19, Ola Cabs had to lay off around 5000 employees in May 2020. The pandemic accelerated innovations in technology, and Bhavish Aggarwal believes that the market might move towards more car rentals and subscription-based ownership of cars. He expressed his views in a webinar addressed to the students of Bennet University.

In April 2022, an internal email was sent out to Ola employees, announcing that Bhavish Aggarwal would be stepping down from the day-to-day operations of the company. He will now focus on the future of Ola’s venture into electric vehicles and quick commerce.
