Park+ is committed to revolutionize how car-related services are offered and managed in India. The continued trust of our investors will help us strengthen our plans for expansion, hiring and to deploy skilled operational teams, and build strong offerings on top of our existing services, providing a 360-degree experience for car owners across the country,” said Amit Lakhotia, founder and chief executive officer (CEO), Park+.
