The Visionary Behind Ola Cabs and Ola Electric
We don’t need to introduce Ola. Ola, the first Indian cab aggregator business, has made using cab services simple. Ola, formerly known as OlaCabs and now owned by ANI Technologies Pvt. Ltd., was established in December 2010 by two IIT Bombay graduates. Since it was one of the first cab firms in India, Ola has done a great job of bridging the gap between commuters and cab owners!

Because of Bhavish Aggarwal’s problem, Ola Cabs was created. He was in the middle of a journey from Bangalore to Bandipur when the driver abandoned him. He refused to alter the driver’s pay that had already been agreed upon as the cause. Feeling helpless, he began to consider how he could develop a useful and pleasurable taxi service. In December 2010, he and co-founder Ankit Bhati finally achieved their objective. Aggarwal had a net worth of 11700 crore as of 2022. His company, Ola, is worth $6.5 billion.
