While Uber might be trying to compete with Ola by attracting drivers with unique incentives and consumers by offering competitive rates, the US-based taxi-hailing service has pledged an investment of $1 billion in India.

In particular, this initiative might be a part of a push by Uber to attract more operators on its platform to take on its competitor Ola cabs, which had also launched a similar feature earlier in June this year.
