Ola has tied up with Mumbai-based Acko General Insurance Ltd and ICICI Lombard for the programme, which is expected to benefit its 125 million users across 110 cities.
"For just Re 1, Ola users can avail an insurance policy of up to Rs 5 lakh, which will provide cover for missed flights, loss of baggage, emergency hotel requirements etc," said Ola's Chief Operating Officer Vishal Kaul.
The insurance can be claimed in cases of loss of baggage, laptops, missed domestic flights, accidental medical expenses and ambulance transportation cover et al.
