The high-profile exits come at a time when Ola is reportedly planning its IPO this year at a lower valuation than planned earlier as several startups’ IPOs have proved to be a nightmare for the investors.
Ride-hailing platform Ola recently shut down its used vehicle business Ola Cars as well as Ola Dash, its quick-commerce business, at a time when Indian companies are pouring money into the 10-15 minute grocery delivery market.
The company shut Ola Cars within one years of its launch, as it focuses on its electric two-wheeler and car verticals.
Ola has so far shut down Ola Cafe, food panda, Ola Foods, and now Ola Dash.
Ola now aims to invest more towards its electric car, cell manufacturing, and financial services businesses.
