India is on course to becoming Uber’s largest market in the next 10 years in number of trips, up from third now, CEO Dara Khosrowshahi told ET in Mumbai during his five-day India visit last week. Khosrowshahi, who took over in 2017 amid the chaos that followed the ouster of founder Travis Kalanick, has transformed Uber into one of the most profitable ride-hailing platforms in the world. He spoke about Uber’s big India bets, its new data centre partnership, a possible return to food delivery, the threat of AI and autonomous vehicles and a potential partnership with Kalanick.
