BEIJING, March 18 (Reuters) - China's ride-hailing

company Didi Global reported on Tuesday a 7.1% rise in

fourth-quarter revenue to 52.9 billion yuan ($7.32 billion), as

the company's recovery from a regulatory overhaul of its

operations gathered pace.

The Beijing-based company posted a net loss of 1.3 billion

yuan for the quarter ended December 31, compared to profit of 45

million yuan in the same period of last year.
