 highly personalized, incorporating search-and ranking-based algorithms powered by back-end data science models  
 that use historical bookings and recent search data, to offer the most personalized vehicle catalogue results to the Guest. Our platform 
 functionality is constantly evolving and improving, often in response to feedback from Guests, whose ratings and reviews are at the core 
 of the community-driven ethos of our platform.                                                                                           |

Browsing and Selecting Vehicles Our platform allows Guests to search listed vehicles in our catalogue across multiple criteria, including price, location, car type, rating, and other relevant parameters. Although listings on our platform change over time, there are generally a wide variety of vehicles available to Guests, including numerous options for compact cars, sedans, SUVs and oftentimes luxury, electric, or other premium vehicles; many listed vehicles have specific features, such as luggage racks, extra trunk storage, children’s car seats and other criteria that Guests find desirable for specific use cases (such as, for example, a weekend get-away trip, moving homes or a family vacation). The density of vehicles available to Guests across cities within our current markets, particularly in the largest urban areas, enables most Guests to identify and book vehicles at locations close to their homes or workplaces. The platform also allows certain highly-ranked Hosts to provide Guests an option of doorstep delivery, therein providing incremental last-mile convenience to the Guest. Guests can observe reviews by other Guests when choosing vehicles, which helps to further build out a community of trust and transparency between Guests and Hosts. 89 Bookings Guests book and pay for the use of vehicles directly through our platform through our mobile applications (Android and iOS) or website. We refer to a scheduled trip or other vehicle use case (e.g., booking a car for a three-day leisure outing) as a “ trip,” and a trip arranged through our platform as a “ booking.” We consider a booking to be complete when a Guest selects a listed vehicle for a trip and pays Zoomcar the upfront portions of the total trip fees, as further described under the heading “ Payments/Revenues” below. Guests can view upcoming and past bookings within our app and can also extend or modify bookings through the platform (with associated fees, as applicable). Guests can also start and end bookings remotely from their mobile app and have opportunities to accumulate or redeem rewards and incentives associated with trips they complete with booked vehicles, as further described below. Trips Once a Guest has booked a vehicle, the Guest receives information from our platform to access the vehicle and start their trip. To access the
