All new Uber users will be provided with a promo code by Apollo which will give them two free rides worth Rs. 250 each," Uber said in a statement here.

"We are excited to partner with Apollo Hospitals and provide more Indians with convenient access to quality healthcare. Our efforts in this space began a few months ago and we look forward to working closely with more partners in the healthcare sector in the future," an Uber spokesperson said in the statement.

"Apollo Hospitals is committed to providing excellent service to its customers.
