Ola Electric, an electric two-wheeler manufacturer, has seen a decline in its market share over the past three months.

This drop in market share follows a report from Goldman Sachs, which projected that Ola Electric is expected to reach EBITDA breakeven by the fiscal year ending March 2027. The decline in sales can be attributed to several factors, including customer complaints, malfunctioning hardware, and software glitches, among others. According to a recent report, Ola Electric received approximately 80,000 customer complaints per month. For the June quarter (Q1FY25), Ola Electric’s revenue from operations grew only 2.8% to Rs 1,644 crore in Q1 FY25 from Rs 1,598 crore in Q4 FY24.

The company is expected to see its revenue grow at 2.5 times the current rate, with a fivefold increase in vehicle volume over the next three years. “We expect FY24 to FY30E revenue growth of +40% CAGR (vs FY22 to FY24 of +240%), implying FCF breakeven (ex-subsidies) in FY30E. We expect OLAE to achieve 11.9% / 27% EBITDA margin / ROIC by FY30E vs -19.7% / -32.0% pc in FY24,” said the Goldman Sachs report.
