Quick‑Commerce Reaches the Garage: Ride N Repair Begins 30‑Minute Spare‑Parts Delivery and Installation
Startup Ride N Repair turns quick‑commerce into 30‑min curbside car and bike fixes, delivering genuine parts plus installation.
BENGALURU, KARNATAKA, INDIA, May 11, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- Ride N Repair today announced the nationwide rollout of a quick‑commerce model that delivers and installs common vehicle spare parts at the breakdown site within 30 minutes. The service, already credited with more than 50,000 roadside repairs, integrates live inventory feeds from micro‑warehouses with certified mobile technicians to shorten average downtime from over an hour to fewer than 30 minutes.
'Indian motorists lose valuable time when a simple belt or hose is unavailable at the roadside,' said Lakshya Khurana, Chief Executive Officer of Ride N Repair. 'By treating spare parts like any other on‑demand item, this platform supplies the correct component and a qualified installer in a single trip.'
Key facts
Coverage: Started with Bengaluru, Delhi NCR, and Pune - soon expanding to more cities.
Service volume: 50,000 roadside interventions since launch in 2023
Response time: Median curb‑to‑fix interval of 28 minutes (internal telemetry)
Inventory scope: 100 high‑failure stock‑keeping units (SKUs) stored in micro‑hubs and partner outlets
How the model operates
A mechanic on‑site identifies the required part and places an in‑app order.
The nearest stocked hub receives the request and dispatches a runner with the component.
The mechanic completes installation curb‑side; payment and a GST‑compliant invoice are processed within the application.
All labour rates and part prices appear in the customer interface before work begins, and a short video of each repair is automatically archived for quality assurance. According to internal user‑experience data, the platform maintains an average customer rating of 4.8 out of 5.
Early performance indicators
1) Bengaluru (Kormangala)
Part: Clutch cable, Royal Enfield
Time: 29 min
2) Pune (Pimpri-Chinchwad)
Part: Radiator hose, Maruti Swift
Time: 26 min
3) Delhi (NH‑48)
Part: Brake shoe, Honda Activa
Time: 21 min
'Replacing a ₹200 component should not require a tow truck,' added Shubham Tyagi, Co‑Founder and Chief Operating Officer. 'A network of micro‑stores and two‑wheeler couriers keeps high‑failure parts in motion, rather than on a shelf.'
Next steps
Ride N Repair is finalising a Series A funding round to triple its micro‑hub footprint by March 2026. Pilot programmes are planned for the Gulf region and the United States, where roadside waits commonly exceed one hour. Indian operations will remain the first market for feature updates and inventory expansion.

Hyundai exits India's Ola Electric, Kia cuts stake in $80 million share sale
(Reuters) -Hyundai Motor sold its entire stake in Ola Electric, while rival South Korean carmaker Kia trimmed its holding, in a combined share sale worth 6.89 billion rupees ($80 million), according to exchange data. Hyundai, which held a 2.47% stake in the company, sold shares at a price of 50.70 rupees, while Kia offloaded 0.6% of Ola Electric shares for 50.55 rupees, the data showed on Tuesday. Kia held a less than 1% stake in Ola Electric. Its current holding is not known as exchange data does not disclose stakes below 1%. Ola Electric's shares slumped 8% on Tuesday as both disposals were at a nearly 6% discount to its closing price on Monday. Hyundai and Kia had invested $300 million in the Bhavish Aggarwal-led Ola in 2019 to collaborate on developing electric vehicles and their charging infrastructure. The disposals come at a time when the company is grappling with slowing sales, regulatory pressure and competition from established two-wheeler makers. Its shares have dropped 46% since going public in August 2024. The Bengaluru-based company had reported a wider fourth-quarter loss and also forecast a revenue decline in the first quarter of the current fiscal amid steep discounts it has been offering to weather competition.

Marriott's Strategy for Its New Series Brand: Why It Started in India
Sure, Marriott had the scale, but it lacked a midscale brand in India — until now. With Fern and the launch of Series, it's finally filling the gap and going all-in on India's fastest-growing hotel segment. When Marriott International introduced its newest global brand — Series by Marriott — it chose India as the launch market and took the unusual step of making an equity investment in its local partner, Mumbai-based Concept Hospitality. Asked if this is the hotel company's first equity investment in the Indian hotel sector, Rajeev Menon, president of Asia Pacific (excluding China) at Marriott International, said, 'You could say that. Marriott will only invest for very strategic purposes. And we see this as a very unique opportunity.' It's a notable move for the hotel giant, which traditionally expands through franchise and management contracts and typically launches brands in Western markets. 'For the 24 years that I've been with Marriott, very rarely do we make investments,' said Menon. 'So you can understand t
