The company recently notified the Bombay Stock Exchange about the decision taken by its board of directors to incorporate a wholly-owned subsidiary. It will leverage the growth opportunities in the evolving mobility space and help the company venture into the manufacturing of electric and hybrid vehicles in the 2, 3 and 4-wheeler categories.

At present, Bajaj offers the Chetak electric scooter in the Indian market. The company plans to launch electric 3-wheelers and quadricycles in 2021-22. KTM is also working on a range of electric motorcycles.

Recently, the TVS Motor Company announced an investment of Rs. 1,000 crore to set up a separate vertical dedicated to EVs.

Besides Ather Energy, Ola Electric is also expected to pose a formidable challenge to brands like Bajaj and TVS in the electric mobility space.
