Ola Electric on Wednesday said its electric two-wheeler registrations nearly doubled sequentially in the April-June quarter, aided by improving retail execution, stronger product availability and sustained demand. The company registered 43,719 vehicles in the first quarter of FY2026, up from 22,252 units in the January-March quarter, according to the government VAHAN registration data cited by the company. June vehicle registrations stood at 16,144 units, the highest monthly tally in recent quarters, capping a quarter of steady recovery in sales momentum. "The sustained momentum reflects the success of our operational improvements, strong product portfolio and continued customer preference for Ola Electric," a company spokesperson said. The Bengaluru-based electric scooter maker said the sequential growth was driven by improvements in retail execution, customer demand and product availability following operational initiatives undertaken over recent quarters. Ola Electric said it .
Ola Consumer has turned free cash-flow positive and achieved profitability, widening the gap with rivals that continue to spend heavily to gain market share in India's fiercely competitive ride-hailing sector, according to company disclosures, industry estimates and people familiar with the matter. The company reported operating revenue of about Rs 1,171 crore in FY25, ahead of Rapido's Rs 934 crore. Industry estimates suggest the gap is even wider on a net revenue basis -- after accounting for customer discounts and driver incentives -- with Ola estimated to have generated Rs 250-300 crore in net revenue during the latest quarter, compared with around Rs 40-45 crore for Rapido and Rs 35-40 crore for Uber, according to people familiar with the developments. The performance reflects Ola's shift over the past two years towards a profitability-focused strategy, prioritising monetisation and cost efficiencies over aggressive discount-led growth. "Short-term growth driven by discounts an
Ola Electric's registrations rose to 15,139 units in May, from 12,323 units in April, a 23 per cent month-on-month increase, according to VAHAN data. The company's performance stood out in a month when the broader electric two-wheeler industry volumes grew by 15 per cent month-on-month, Ola Electric said in a statement. This is a third consecutive month of robust sales recovery, which comes on the back of a front-end retail rejig and better operational execution, as Ola's two-wheeler EV portfolio bounces back amid petrol price increases, marking a broader market shift to electric vehicles, it added. "Ola Electric has delivered its third consecutive month of growth, with May registrations rising 23 per cent month-on-month and significantly outpacing industry growth," said an Ola Electric spokesperson. The strong demand environment, coupled with increasing traction for its Roadster portfolio, has helped us maintain the growth momentum, he said, adding that "We remain focused on ...
Ola Electric is on track to nearly double quarterly volumes in the June quarter, with registrations in the first quarter of FY27 already surpassing the company's entire Q4 FY26 tally on the VAHAN vehicle registration portal, signalling a sharp recovery in demand after a weak March quarter. According to VAHAN data, Ola Electric has recorded about 22,600 registrations so far in Q1 FY27, exceeding the 22,221 units registered in Q4 FY26 with around 40 days still remaining in the quarter. The rebound follows what the company previously described as a low-volume quarter marked by an operational reset and service stabilisation efforts. Ola Electric has guided for 40,000-45,000 orders and consolidated revenue of Rs 500 crore to Rs 550 crore in Q1 FY27, implying a near doubling from Q4 levels if current registration trends continue through June. Founder and chairman Bhavish Aggarwal said during the company's post-results call that registrations had risen from around 10,000 units in March to
Ola Electric on Friday announced a strong month-on-month growth in April 2026, with registrations rising to 12,166 units, up from 10,133 units in March, according to VAHAN data. This represents a 20 per cent MoM increase, building on the recovery momentum seen in March, Ola Electric said in a statement. The company's performance stood out in a month when the broader electric two-wheeler industry declined by over 22 per cent MoM, it added. Ola Electric was the only leading EV two-wheeler brand to grow month-on-month in April, reflecting improving customer confidence, stabilising operations, and continued demand for its expanding EV portfolio, the company said. "March marked a strong recovery for Ola Electric, and April has continued that momentum. Registrations grew 20 per cent month-on-month even as the market declined sharply, making Ola the only leading EV two-wheeler brand to grow in April," an Ola Electric spokesperson said. This reflects stronger execution, stabilising ...
