Ride-hailing major Uber is laying off 200 to 250 employees in India as part of a global restructuring that eliminates 3,300 roles, or 10% of its workforce. The layoffs primarily impact tech and operations divisions, with the AI solutions team reportedly halved. Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi stated the move aims to reduce management layers, streamline operations, and refocus capital on core mobility, delivery, and autonomous vehicle initiatives. Despite the staff reductions, Uber reaffirmed its commitment to India, noting plans to expand regional operations supporting the broader Asia-Pacific market.
