Same rationale as previous nomination. Namely:
- the content is problematic relative to WP:PROMO and WP:NOTHOWTO (written as a promotional "how to", "how it works" type advert). And,
- the subject does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NORG (the limited sources that are available are trivial/passing-mentions in which the subject is not the primary topic, are republished press releases, or are otherwise not independent of the subject).
Of the references in the article, the majority discuss the concept of ride-sharing in general, where the subject here is mentioned alongside many other companies operating in the same space (IE: it is not the primary topic). In many cases the references do not support the text they claim to support (for example, the Deccan Herald article is offered as support for the company's founding date - but there is no mention of the company's foundation in the article. And the citizenmatters.in piece is offered to support the list of the company's founders - but at least one of the names listed is not mentioned in the article). I cannot find other sources to support notability (or the claims/text in the article).
I still don't see how a 30 person company, with no material coverage in reliable sources, meets GNG or NORG. Guliolopez ( talk) 14:33, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete The current sourcing doesn't meet WP:GNG, pretty much all the reliable sources focus on ridesharing as a whole and not the subject. Best, GPL93 ( talk) 13:01, 4 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Zero indications of notability, article reads like a company profile. I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria for establishing notability. Topic fails GNG and WP:NCORP. HighKing ++ 14:11, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
