Fast growing market: India accounts for 12% of all Uber trips globally.

NEW DELHI: US ride-hailing firm Uber said that the recent deal to fold its China operations into local rival Didi Chuxing would allow it to invest more in India, where it has recorded rapid growth this year, according to a letter to investors obtained by Reuters.
