Was Bhavish Aggrawal a little too aggressive with Kunal Kamra?… But that’s how I as a shareholder want Bhavish to be. You NEED TO BE PASSIONATE about your product. You protect it like your baby… if anyone tries to attack it… you attack right back… you go far and deep to protect your baby… That day Bhavish did just that … try to save his baby… Ola Electric.
Maybe the common people found it repulsive that a CEO would come down to push and shove… but that’s what …a shareholder would want his CEO to do… to fight back… unlike the total silence from Ratan Tata when one Nano car caught fire…
Continue readingAll you need to repair an Ola Electric Scooter is a screw driver and Allen Keys… its as easy as that… parts are already available on Amazon.
Ola has a lot of plus on its side and just 1 minus point on its side.
The only minus point is its SOFTWARE GLITCHES on the VCU and Touch Screen. Ola is not the only company to suffer from it. Ather also has this problem.
Let us understand this problem thoroughly.
But since Ather’s customers are premium customers from the higher middle class they either have a 2nd scooter or vehicle at home and are not as desperate as the Ola Electric Customer.
The guy who set fire to the Ola Showroom was depending upon the Ola Scooter to run errands and…
Continue readingKunal Kamra’s tweet notwithstanding… we at PlugInCaroo propose 3 simple solutions to a thousand problems at Ola Electric service centers.
1st let us acknowledge that Ola Electric is having problems with timely repairs
2nd let us also acknowledge the fact that competitors are using this opportunity to show Ola Electric in bad light. This has happened before also when Tata launched the Nano.
Ola Electric’s 3 main problem till now has been its:
a) Inability to repair the electric scooter… in a timely manner…
b) Same problem happening multiple times and
c) Piling up of eScooters at Ola Service Centers.
Most of the time the reason given is that…
Continue readingSlow speed electric scooters make up 90% of the electric scooter market. While Ola, Ather, Bajaj, TVS together make up just 10% of the electric scooter market share.

It is rather surprising to see that none of the top 4 branded companies (Ola, Ather, Bajaj &TVS) make slow speed electric scooters and together the fast eScooters make up just 10% of the electric scooter market in India.

What are slow speed eScooters? Slow speed electric scooters are those electric scooters which have a top speed less than 30kmph.
Indian govt must encourage this adoption by removing the WATTAGE RESTRICTION for slow speed eScooters because scooters need higher wattage if they have to carry another passenger or heavy load over flyovers.
So Govt should amend the Indian Motor Law… actually it could increase the speed to 30kmph (from the existing 25kmph) and remove wattage restriction and ensure these vehicles do not cross 30 kmph… actually the speed could be increased to 40kmph to make the vehicles more popular.
In the age of flyovers its time modern India does away with old laws with nonsensical wattage restriction… which prevent slow speed eScooters from climbing flyovers even with single rider… carrying a heavy load is unimaginable for him… India needs to do this to reduce the petrol consumption in Indian vehicles.
Currently these slow speed scooters do not require:

Modi supporters feel that Modi can do no wrong. Those against Modi feel he is trying to sell the farms to Adani.
The fact is that NEITHER Adani nor ANY SINGLE country can buy the total AGRICULTURAL PRODUCE of INDIA. We can discuss this later.
There is ANOTHER angle about this farm law which shows that THAT STATE PROTESTING the 3 Farm Laws the HIGHEST was Punjab which is the Cancer Capital of India. It shows that somewhere there is a direct link between the two.
The current situation rewards those who grow poisonous food the most. But that is food for some other discussion. Lets talk about the Farm Bill.
We at PlugInCaroo want to ask just 5 simple questions:

It aims to provide farmers with more options and potentially better prices by opening up the market beyond traditional APMCs.
(We at PlugInCaroo feel that it was the correct thing to do and there should be no law that forces the farmers to sell to a single entity. Such a law must not exist in an Independent India.
Existing Farm Laws mandate that it is illegal for farmers to sell anywhere or anyone outside the APMC Mandis.
Why only farmers?.. Nobody… Nobody should be forced in Independent India to sell to ANY single entity… whether Govt or Private.
The exiting law prevents farmers from selling directly to the customers. Farmers in India as per law can sell ONLY to APMC (Govt appointed Agents … (read middle men)… at Mandis). These middle men are responsible for inflating the prices of commodities.
Its convenient (but not beneficial) for the farmers because they can dump their entire produce at a single place in one go.
APMC is ONLY beneficial for the APMC Agents (middlemen) because they get huge quantities of produce at very cheap rates… many times (when weather is good and produce is more) at Rupee 1 per Kg.
Many a times the farmers protest such low prices by not selling to the APMC and instead throwing the produce on the roads under the trucks so as to destroy them than sell it.
The existing draconian laws were started by
