Budget hotel aggregator Oyo Rooms made a splash on social media on Monday, claiming to have hit 1 million check-ins. The ticker on its website crossed the one million milestone at around 3:30pm IST.
According to the flash sale page, a thousand early birds get bookings at Rs. 99, but it appears to be sold out even though the ticker has yet to cross a thousand users on its homepage at 4:40pm.
