App-based ride-hailing platform Uber has announced that its mobility business is seeing green shoots of recovery, with low-cost products like Auto and Moto leading the way.

In a press statement, the company claimed that the Auto category is recovering at a faster growth rate with cities like Delhi almost returning to 80 per cent of pre-COVID levels, followed by Jaipur and Chandigarh.
