Uber CEO calls India ‘toughest market’ to succeed in

Bengaluru: Uber Chief Executive Dara Khosrowshahi in a firechat chat with Infosys Chairman Nandan Nilekani here on Thursday called India the toughest market for the ride hailing platform, whilst underscoring that companies and governments across the globe can learn from the scale and ambition of India’s digital public infrastructure.

“The Indian customer is so demanding and doesn’t want to pay… This is the toughest market to succeed in, but if we succeed here, that sets the standard for us to succeed in so many markets,” Khosrowshahi said.
