Are you suddenly experiencing a short of Ola and Uber cabs in Mumbai and Bengaluru? You are t alone. In fact, over last few days, many Ola and Uber customers in Mumbai and Bengaluru are clueless about sudden lack of availability of cabs on ro. So what could be reason behind such a severe short of cabs from se two important ride-hailing companies in India?

We are learning that one of main reasons behind this could be a growing disappointment among drivers over income cuts and changes in incentives. Such issues have led to protests by Ola and Uber drivers in past. But recent protest by Ola and Uber drivers was caused due to a ban on surge pricing during odd-even scheme in Delhi.
