C.E. Info Systems sues Ola Electric for 'copying' data for OLA Maps
C.E. Info Systems has reportedly lawsuit against Ola Electric, alleging that the company has copied its proprietary data to build its own Ola Maps.

OLA recently launched OLA Maps. According to media reports, Ola Electric is accused of duplicating MapMyIndia’s API and SDKs, co-mingling, and reverse engineering licensed products, which is prohibited under the terms of their agreement.

While OLA claimed its map was developed using open-source data and real-time information from the Ola fleet, CE Info Systems strongly refutes these claims, saying Ola’s development of Ola Maps did not rely solely on open map data, and alleges that Ola has misused confidential information and trade secrets belonging to MapMyIndia.

A domestic brokerage has reportedly said that certain market share loss for C.E. Info Systems due to this development cannot be ruled out, even though OLA two-wheelers still offer a choice of MapMyIndia maps to its customers. The brokerage reportedly views this development as an isolated instance and expected the market share loss to be restricted to OLA two-wheelers.

Ola Electric has reportedly stated that the allegations made by CE Info Systems against the company are false and misleading.

Ola Electric spokesperson was quoted by the media saying: "We would like to state unequivocally that these allegations are false, malicious and misleading. Ola Electric stands by the integrity of its business practices. We will suitably respond to the notice shortly."
