Ola - Near or Far, Always Close

OLA (registered as ANI Technologies Pvt Ltd) is a Bangalore-based player in the organised taxi market in India. The cab aggregator space, unlike other sectors such as food technology and education technology, does not have many start-ups, which makes the industry less competitive. However, the fierce competition between the two main players Ola and Uber, is likely to see aggressive price cuts, which is going to prove highly beneficial to the end users (the travellers). Three main players - Mumbai-based Meru Cabs, which pioneered the concept of radio taxi services, is still the market leader, while Ola and Uber are enjoying a significant share of the cab aggregator market. The Indian radio-taxi market will grow at a CAGR of over 17 percent by 2020, while the taxi aggregator industry is valued at US$ 15 billion. Due to low competition, new entrants have entered the market and are creating a niche for themselves.

Key factors behind the unprecedented growth in revenues include:

• increasing internet and mobile penetration
• growing acceptability of online payments
• favourable demographics (significant proportion of young working population)

Ola is an Indian online transportation network company founded as an online cab aggregator in Mumbai, though it is now based out of Bangalore.

Founded in December 2010, Ola offers customers an easy way to travel by road. It informs customers about the availability of cars for the routes desired, along with the prices. Ola was co-founded by Bhavish Aggarwal and Ankit Bhati.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you please explain OLA’s business model?

OLA is an online marketplace for valid permit holder drivers who are duly authorised & verified by the Transport Authorities. These drivers are independent and they are either self-employed, which means they own their commercial vehicles, or work for an Operator who owns multiple cars. Just as the passengers have an OLA app on their smart phone to book a cab, these drivers have a similar Driver mobile App on their smart phones. Ola activates the Driver app after a thorough check of authenticity and conducting due diligence of the commercial & personal papers of the driver & operator. These drivers decide their own time to login to the OLA application and accept requests for rides from customers. They may choose to remain logged out of the system as per their convenience.

What is OLA’s peak time charge?

OLA peak time charge is a fare-rationalising rule of using a multiplier X or a flat surcharge to the standard fares causing the fare to be higher than the standard fare during certain times the day; for example, if X is 1.2 during some point of time then the standard fare will be multiplied by 1.2 to get the final fare.
