Odd-even 2.0: Ola to offer 100% cashback on shared rides in New Delhi

Ola will offer 100% cashback on its 'Ola Shuttle' service on April 22 and April 29 in New Delhi, during the second leg of the odd-even scheme in support of the government's initiative to rationalise the usage of vehicles to curb pollution in the city.

The app-based taxi aggregator, Ola, said that its customers will have to use the coupon code 'ODDEVEN' to get 100% cash back on their Ola Shuttle ride.

Commenting on the development, Sundeep Sahni, Vice President, New Initiatives at Ola, said, "Launched ahead of the first Odd-Even experiment, Ola Shuttle has been well-received by users across Delhi NCR. 

“While tens of thousands of people are using Ola Shuttle on a daily basis, we would like to extend this service free of cost on select days for citizens, in our support of the vehicle rationing scheme and contribute to the shared vision of a greener and cleaner Delhi.”

Ola, along with its rival Uber, have been under the Delhi Chief Minister's scanner for surge pricing. Both the companies suspended its peak hour pricing policy temporarily after CM Arvind Kejriwal warned of stern action against the companies for flouting fare norms.
