Ola Electric Mobility Ltd was betting on its gigafactory to shun dependence on Chinese cells for its batteries.

- Ayaan Kartik

NEW DELHI: But its capacity expansion is behind schedule, exposing it to risks of higher costs, loss of government incentives and even technology going obsolete.

Ola Cell Technologies Private Ltd (OCT), a wholly owned subsidiary of Ola Electric Ltd, began constructing its gigafactory in May 2023 in four phases to produce lithium-ion cells for electric vehicle batteries.

Of ₹5,500 crore the company raised by issuing fresh shares in August 2024, it set aside ₹1,227 crore to expand the capacity of its facility to 6.4 GWh in the second phase by April 2025.
