According to Bloomberg, processes of Uber’s cab services are about to alliance with Didi Chuxing which is another rival.

Didi Chuxing would spend $ 1 billion for the merge with Uber, which is worth $ 68 billion. Ultimate value of the merged unit will be $ 35 billion. Further it has been reported the ride-hailing has been permitted in China, by law end of July 2016. Ride-hailing is becoming popular in many countries and but yet it’s emerging due to its inherent limitations. According to a recent research done in USA by Forbes, it is evident that awareness of Ride-hailing, popularity and usage of Ride-hailing apps are not up to the expected level.

The amount of $ 2 billion bore by Uber to take the lead in the industry could be recovered through the merge. On the other hand Didi Chuxing has reduced a competitor which they have fought, with the investments of Apple & by unifying with some other cab service providers. The Chinese customers got access to travel amongst India, Southeast Asia and the States with the app of Didi Chuxing. Thereby they may set the trends in the industry with the new venture and will be the leader in the mobility market.
