The Tata Group is in talks with Uber Technologies for a strategic partnership to increase traffic and engagement on Tata's digital platform. The alliance may involve integrating Uber's services into Tata's ecosystem.
Tata Neu, a comprehensive 'super app,' has faced challenges with user growth and customer engagement. Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi met with Tata Sons chairman N Chandrasekaran earlier this year and is expected to meet again during his upcoming trip to India.
However, Tata Sons plans to inject approximately $1 billion into its digital subsidiary, Tata Digital, in the coming years. Last October, Tata Group contemplated an extra $1 billion investment in its super app, Tata Neu.
