Let us as a Nation move towards fuel efficient vehicles, clean water, green farms and a clean-green environment!
India receives some of the highest rainfall in the world... still the country thirst for water... why?
India has the highest cattle population in the world...but hardly extracts any biogas/gobar-gas from it... why?
India tops the world in almost all agricultural products... but less than 1% is organic/natural... why?
India receives good sunlight and has a Solar powered Airport... but less than 0.01% of houses are powered by solar power... why?
India has the best electric/CNG car in the world (E2O/Tata NANO).. but 99.99% of car owners prefer to pay in dollars for their petrol.. why? (1Ltr = 1$ almost).
All these problems can be solved by us 100% within our lifetime... if we take action to solve these issues personally and bringing awareness about it, (instead of discussing TV serials, celebrities, cricket scores & political parties).
Let us together build a bridge of knowledge over ignorance!
Lets us become independent from "Fuel, Water and Seed control".
Right from the time when fire was discovered as a source of energy people have been trying to control the source of energy... not any more!
THE PAST:Ather Energy started 10 yrs ago making scooters. The vision they had was laser sharp – they wanted to make the fastest scooter in India. Until Rizta all they did every year was just that.
Almost every 18 months-2yrs they launched a new model that was faster than the previous model.
Rizta changed all that … it was like a scooter from a completely new company… of all the scooters that Ather has made we at PlugInCaroo like Rizta the best… the colours the design… smart combo helmets… the compatibility with the smart… the way it charges the helmet… too good too amazing.
Ather eMotorcycle: The reason why Ather NEVER built a motorcycle is very, very silly because Ather scooter is in fact a Motorcycle with
Ultraviolette Automotive, an electric two-wheeler manufacturer, is planning an IPO to raise approximately $500 million (Rs 4,343 crore) and is targeting a listing in 2026-2027. The company is backed by TVS Motor and Qualcomm Ventures.
Ather Energy would be competing with Ultraviolette Automotive… more than competing with Ola, Bajaj and TVS. Ather’s only problem is that they are very slow – eg – in 10 yrs they have still not migrated to building motorcycle.
Ather Energy Scooters are a motorcycle hiding under a scooter’s inefficiencies like smaller wheels, smaller wheelbase, tiny shock absorbers and thus Ather has not yet realized its true potential.
Only after building their first motorcycle will Ather Energy avail the true benefits which the company truly deserves and can ONLY then compete with Ultraviolette.
India, South East Asian countries and to a certain extent African countries have a insanely HUGE 2wheeler market which will welcome and accommodate all new Electric 2 Wheeler makers similar to Ultraviolette Automotive.
The plus point is such beautiful Electric Vehicle will be welcomed in Europe & USA and Latin American countries.
Lot Size: Retail investors can bid for a minimum of 46 shares, amounting to ₹14,766
Dates: 28-30 April 2025
Utilization of IPO Proceeds: The funds raised through the IPO will be utilized for:
Establishing a new manufacturing facility in Maharashtra.
Expanding research and development efforts.
Marketing initiatives.
Debt repayment
Unlike the rest of the market Ather positions itself as a premium scooter manufacturer and earns the respect of the market for the timely service and maintenance it provides. It also has some of the coolest accessories.
PLUS POINTS OF ATHER:
Ather Energy is the company that started the eScooter Revolution in India… for Indians by Indians.
Swapnil & Tarun were hell bent on creating the fastest scooter in India and achieved that feat.
Ather finally proved to the public that eScooters are not weak, feeble and slow. Many people before Ather used to ask if eScooters could climb flyovers?
Being a pure EV company or ONLY EV company has its own advantages and efficiencies.
Unlike their competitors Ather & Ola Electric have (no petrol 2wheelers and ) no compulsion to COMPLAIN/PROTEST/PROTECT the fall in sales of petrol 2wheeler, if any… as the electric 2wheelers get more and more popularity.
As eScooters become more popular … and the PRICE of Petrol keep increasing… petrol scooters will eventually lose their charm in the market.
Ather Energy has been a trailblazer in India’s electric scooter market, achieving several notable firsts:
Scooters have become a popular choice for commuting in India due to their affordability, ease of use, and versatility. Among the market leaders, Honda Activa and TVS Jupiter have firmly established themselves as reliable petrol-driven options, while Ola Electric S1X signifies the emerging dominance of electric scooters.
Lets compare the features, advantages, and areas of consideration for these scooters.
The Honda Activa offers two models: the Activa 110 and Activa 125. The Activa 110 provides a balance between affordability and mileage, delivering around 50 km per litre and priced around ₹80,000.
On the other hand, the Activa 125, priced around ₹85,000, caters to those seeking enhanced power and additional features like a digital console.
Both models uphold Honda’s reputation for reliability, making them appealing to riders in urban areas.
Similarly, the TVS Jupiter features two variants: the Jupiter 110 and Jupiter 125.
MILEAGE: Kitna deti hai?
As far as mileage is concerned Ola Electric S 1 X leads the pack with 906kms per Rs 103 (cost of 1ltr Petrol) or 151 kilometres from a single charge which costs around Rs 15.
For every litre of petrol price, or hundred and three rupees, an Ola owner can charge his scooter at least 6 times.
This gives him a range of around 906 kilometers.
This means that for Rs 103 the Ola owner can ride for 906 kilometers. This is huge savings.
Honda Activa 110 gives around 60 kilometers per liter, followed by Jupiter 110.
But Jupiter’s 125 gives slightly better mileage of 50 kilometers than Activa 125 which gives around 47 kilometers of range per liter.
In conclusion: the choice between these scooters depends on individual priorities—be it mileage, advanced features, eco-friendliness, or cost-effectiveness.
For traditional petrol scooter enthusiasts, the Activa and Jupiter offer dependable options across varying budgets. But the increasing petrol costs adds considerable burden on the customer’s pocket.
Ola Electric S1X has the lowest maintenance and operation costs. But unless you have a fixed parking spot near your building with charging point Electric Scooters are not for you.
It is ultimately, one’s commuting needs that shape the decision, ensuring that whether petrol-powered or electric, the ideal scooter should cater to the rider’s lifestyle.
Autorickshaws have long been a popular mode of transportation in many cities, especially in countries like India where their affordability and compact design make them ideal for navigating congested urban areas.
However, despite their utility, autorickshaws come with a host of challenges that demand reevaluation in today’s world.
The rise of eBike taxis presents an innovative solution that could address many of these challenges while fostering a cleaner, more sustainable, and efficient urban transportation system.
Why most of the Autorickshaws should be replaced with eBike Taxis?
Environmental Concerns One of the most significant drawbacks of autorickshaws is their environmental impact. Cities are already grappling with poor air quality, the emissions from autorickshaws only add to the problem…
Indian farmers are finding it difficult to farm because they are farming completely wrong. They need to LEARN “How to Farm?“
It is very common to watch Indian farmers trying to farm acres upon acres without a single pond on his farm… some even set fire to the straw left behind after harvest… in turn destroying the life and nutrients in the soil.
They need to ask themselves the question How to Farm?”
