Ola’s initiative aims at making mobility more affordable to the elderly. The senior citizens (60 years and above) who register for this program will get 20 percent discount on their first ten rides every month.

To avail the discount, the senior citizens should register online through a link. They also need to submit the proof of identity and age. After the verification, the senior citizens can start taking Ola rides.

DriveSpark Thinks!

We have seen government transport offering discounts to senior citizens. But very rarely we see a private firm taking up such an initiative. It's good to see that ride-hailing companies are concerned about the senior citizens of the country.
