Ather Energy files RHP to raise Rs 2,626 Cr via fresh issue Electric two-wheeler maker Ather Energy has filed its Red Herring Prospectus (RHP) with market regulator SEBI for its proposed Initial Public Offering (IPO). The offer comprises a fresh issue of equity shares worth Rs 2,626 crore and an Offer for Sale (OFS) of up to 1.1 crore equity shares by existing shareholders, including the company’s founders and early investors. Promoters Tarun Mehta and Swapnil Jain will each offload up to 9.8 lakh shares. Other selling shareholders in the OFS include Tiger Global, Caladium Investment (GIC), National Investment and Infrastructure Fund II, and seed investors such as IITM Incubation Cell and IITMS Rural Technology. The company has appointed Axis Capital, HSBC, JM Financial, and Nomura as the Book Running Lead Managers. The issue is being launched under Regulation 6(2) of SEBI's ICDR regulations, as Ather does not meet the profitability norms required for a mainboard listing under Regulation 6(1). Founded in 2013, Ather sells high-performance electric scooters, including the popular 450X. The IPO represents a pivotal moment for India’s electric vehicle (EV) sector and could bolster investor confidence in clean mobility ventures. The issue opens on April 28, 2025, and closes on April 30, 2025, with the anchor book opening on April 25. Shares will be listed on both BSE and NSE, with NSE serving as the designated stock exchange. According to the RHP, Hero MotoCorp is the largest shareholder in Ather Energy, holding 38.19% of the company. It is followed by Caladium Investment (GIC) with a 15.43% stake. The National Investment and Infrastructure Fund (NIIF) and Tiger Global hold 14.22% and 6.56%, respectively. Ather’s co-founders, Mehta and Jain, each hold 6.81%. Despite being Ather’s debut on public markets, the company has flagged the inherent risks associated with new listings in its RHP. Proceeds from the fresh issue will be used for business expansion, product development, and debt reduction. Meanwhile, Ola Electric, the first EV startup to go public, has witnessed a sharp decline, losing nearly 66% of its market capitalization from its peak valuation. In the first nine months of FY25, the company sold 1,08,000 vehicles, generating revenue of Rs 1,578.9 crore. However, it posted a loss of Rs 579.6 crore during the same period. For the full fiscal year ending March 2024, the company reported revenue of Rs 1,753 crore with a loss of Rs 1062 crore.
