Ola Electric Clarifies Supplier Dues, NCLT Reports; Shares Slip

· · 3 min read

Ola Electric addressed reports of two suppliers, Anevolve Mando E-Mobility and Sterling E-Mobility Solutions, initiating insolvency proceedings over alleged unpaid dues. The EV maker stated these disputes are subject to pre-existing arbitration over warranty and performance issues, causing its shares to dip.

Ola Electric Mobility Ltd. has issued a clarification regarding recent news reports that two of its suppliers, Anevolve Mando E-Mobility Pvt Ltd and Sterling E-Mobility Solutions Pvt Ltd, had moved the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) over alleged pending payments. This development led to a minor dip in the company's share price.

The electric vehicle manufacturer stated in a regulatory filing that it had previously raised “warranty and performance-related concerns” concerning certain parts supplied by these vendors. As these issues remained unresolved, Ola Electric initiated arbitration proceedings against them, filing petitions under Section 9 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, before the Commercial Court, Bengaluru, to seek interim relief.

Subsequently, following Ola Electric's arbitration filings, both Anevolve Mando E-Mobility Pvt Ltd and Sterling E-Mobility Solutions Pvt Ltd filed their respective petitions under Section 9 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016. These NCLT petitions pertain to the same underlying transactions that are already subject to arbitration.

Ola Electric maintains that the disputes raised by the aforementioned vendors are based on “genuine pre-existing disputes” that are currently awaiting adjudication through arbitration. The company affirmed its commitment to contesting the NCLT petitions and taking all appropriate legal steps in accordance with applicable law.

Following the company's clarification, Ola Electric shares were trading 0.80 percent lower at Rs 42.06. The stock continues to be under the long-term Additional Surveillance Measure (ASM) framework on both the BSE and NSE, a regulatory mechanism designed to alert investors to heightened price volatility and encourage caution.

Recent Performance and Battery Advancements

In other recent developments, Ola Electric reported robust growth in its VAHAN registrations for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 (Q1 FY27). The company registered 43,719 vehicles, nearly doubling from the 22,252 vehicles recorded in Q4 FY26. June 2026 marked a particularly strong performance, with 16,144 registrations, reflecting sustained business momentum.

Furthermore, Ola Electric's subsidiary recently achieved a significant milestone by receiving Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) certification for its indigenously developed LFP 46100 cylindrical cell. This certification is a crucial step forward in the company's ambitious battery manufacturing plans.

Analyst Insights on Ola Electric Stock

Market analysts are closely monitoring Ola Electric's trajectory. Ravi Singh, Chief Research Officer at Master Capital Services, noted the company's aggressive expansion and battery manufacturing plans but pointed out ongoing concerns regarding service quality, execution, and profitability. He advises investors to monitor sales figures, margin improvements, and progress in expanding its product portfolio, emphasizing that long-term prospects are tied to India's growing EV adoption, but sustained earnings growth will be crucial.

Kranthi Bathini, Director of Equity Strategy at WealthMills Securities, cautioned that the stock's elevated volatility makes it suitable primarily for investors with a high-risk appetite. For short-term perspectives, Virat Jagad, Senior Technical Research Analyst at Bonanza, suggested a fresh entry only above the Rs 49 level to confirm a breakout, recommending a stop loss at Rs 39.50 for existing positions.
