India’s Ola is raising $300 million from Hyundai Motor Group, giving the ride-hailing startup more capital to compete for drivers and customers against Uber Technologies just as the US rival prepares for an IPO.
The deal values Ola at about $6 billion, said a person familiar with the matter, asking not to be named. The Bangalore-based company will continue to raise funds and has term sheets from other investors, the person said.
