The previous month, CCPA had sent the e-scooter maker a notice asking for an explanation after receiving 10,000 complaints, the newswire noted.
Ola had noted that it had resolved 99.1% of the complaints, the newswire noted.
Upon reviewing that response, the CCPA has asked the Bureau of Indian Standards to conduct a detailed investigation into the issue.
