CEO Tarun Mehta Calls for Supply Chain Diversification to Mitigate Rare Earth Risks

CEO and co-founder Tarun Mehta emphasized the requirement for greater supply chain hedging in order to prevent disruptions due to limited rare earth supply, which had affected the sector earlier this year. “The one supplier, one country model is too risky now. We need to hedge in multiple countries and suppliers,” he said. Mehta also pointed out that Ather is making efforts to move away from heavy rare earths to lighter ones, lowering dependence on single sources.

EL Platform Promises 15% Cost Savings and Faster Scooter Production

The recently introduced EL platform aims to simplify production by cutting the number of components in an e-scooter to as few as 15. This reduces assembly time by 15% and also lowers production cost by 15%.

Key features are:

• Unibody steel chassis taking the place of aluminium frames
• Lower-cost transmission architecture
• Integrated charge drive controller, which is an integration of charger and motor controller

“These innovations will help us enhance margins over the next few years,” Mehta said.

Market Expansion Plans Aim to Boost Share to 20% With 700 Outlets by March 2026

Ather Energy presently has a 17% market share in the domestic electric two-wheeler market, almost double that of the same period last year. The company is targeting a 20% market share in the near future. To drive growth, Ather is planning to increase outlets from 416 to 700 by March 2026 and has already added 180 new stores in the last two quarters.

Focus on Charging Infrastructure to Improve EV Adoption and National Recognition

Mehta emphasized the need for standardized charging systems and public access. “We have at least one charging point in every apartment complex to make EVs adoptable,” he said, while adding that Ather’s charging standard has already gained national recognition.

Looking Ahead: EL Platform Scooters to Launch Next Year, Driving Growth and Investor Confidence

The first scooter based on the EL platform is likely to be launched next year. With less expense, quicker assembly, and a broader retail presence, Ather is positioning itself for stronger growth while riding a wave of positive investor sentiment reflected in its rising stock price.
