Insufficient evidence that this 30-person company meets WP:NORG or WP:GNG. Or, if such evidence exists, I have not found it. In terms of the links/references in the article itself for example, the [https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/for-citys-tech-firms-ride-share-idea-is-employee-care-mantra/articleshow/65096123.cms Times of India article] mentions the company only once or twice, and even then only to state that reps from the subject company "remained unavailable for comment". The mention in the [https://www.deccanherald.com/metrolife/carpooling-not-so-rare-anymore-667313.html Deccan Herald article] is also only fleeting. And, not only is it a significant stretch to suggest that it supports the text it is claimed to support but, as with other pieces, the article discusses "ride sharing" (and ride sharing apps/companies in general), and only mentions the subject here briefly. Similarly, the [http://citizenmatters.in/carpooling-entrepreneurs-app-business-transport-cities-5810 Citizenmatters.in piece] discusses the subject alongside a half-dozen other similar companies. In short, I am not seeing any evidence that the subject has been the subject of material and significant coverage of which it is the primary topic. (Yes, it is mentioned in passing in articles about ride sharing in India in general. But insufficient examples where it is the primary or sole topic of coverage.) That this article was initially created as some kind of advert or [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sride_(company)&oldid=899174095#How_It_Works "how-to guide"] is also concerning.
