Ola Electric's revenue from operations reduced to 470 crore in Q3 FY26, compared to Rs 1,045 crore in the previous year of the same quarter, its consolidated financial statements sourced from the National Stock Exchange (NSE) show. Electric scooter sales remained the primary revenue driver for Ola Electric in the first quarter of FY26, while battery sales contributed only a marginal portion. Other income related to batteries and automobiles took the company’s total revenue of Rs 504 crore in Q3 FY26, down sharply from Rs 1,172 crore in the same quarter last year. Procurement costs accounted for 31% of Ola Electric’s total expenses in Q3 FY26, standing at Rs 309 crore, according to the company’s disclosure on NSE.
