Is this even working? Or just another marketing gimmick?

Ex Ola here. Everything this guy says is sham. Ola is a shit hole. Stay away from anything Ola sells. For data point here's one: they have an employee churn rate of 50% every year (half of the company leaves every year)

Well contrary to what most Indian tech workers say reality is 1) Ola have higher market share than Uber in India and offers more services than Uber. 2) For all the Ather hype, reality is Ola electric have 45-50% market share in E-2W and this will increase further as he has 20GW of allocated PLI for Cell manufacturing. His company Ola cell have already developed 2170, 4680 cells and filed maximum patents in 2023 for a electric company based in India. 3) with krutrim, he is only Indian founder who is working on Semiconductor chip design, data centers and cloud computing. He had acquired Bodhi computing last year and brought their founders who were Ex Intel india head to lead Chip design and data center business for Krutrim. We will see in next 2-3 years where this thing will go.

Isn't this a wrapper for some open source map service provider?

They are using open street map and claiming to be developed in India. I wish some media publication expose this publicity stunt.

He has gone bonkers, no one listen to him don’t worry. Even if he gives it for free. Only upcoming start up will try just to burn their hands

The only data point that matters to a lot of people here is Attrition across ola is above 50 percent.
