Usage of OSM maps by Ola

Ola Maps makes use of OSM as one of the data sources currently for the Indian subcontinent. Ola manufactures a range of electric vehicles, and a ride-hailing platform, which uses Ola Maps for shared mobility. Ola would like to be a part of the OSM community to help enrich map data.
