Founded in 2013 by IIT Madras graduates Tarun Mehta and Swapnil Jain, Ather Energy has emerged as one of the top four electric scooter manufacturers in India, alongside Ola Electric, TVS, and Bajaj Auto. The company has sold over 1.73 lakh electric scooters to date and is backed by investors like HeroMoto Corp, Tiger Global, and GIC.
In the financial year 2024, Ather Energy reported a consolidated revenue of ₹1,753 crore, a 1.7% decrease year-over-year. The company plans to utilize the IPO proceeds for capital expenditures, capacity expansion, and general corporate purposes.
Ather Energy's IPO is expected to be a significant catalyst in India's electric vehicle revolution. As the country aims to achieve ambitious targets for electric mobility, the success of Ather's public offering could attract more investments and attention to the sector.
The IPO also marks a milestone for Ather, as it looks to tap into the public market by 2025 to fund its growth plans. The company has already picked HSBC Holdings Plc, Nomura Holdings Inc., and JPMorgan Chase & Co. to help arrange the offering.
