EV startups may enter PLI Auto after nudge from PMO

Siam is set to take up the issue for discussion on 23 January in a meeting of its electric mobility group.

(BLOOMBERG)

The Union ministry of heavy industries (MHI) is considering including electric vehicle (EV) startups in its flagship production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme for automobile and auto component industry following a nudge from the Prime Minister's Office (PMO), three people aware of the matter said.

The mini of heavy industries, the nodal agency for the PLI scheme, has sought inputs from auto industry body Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (Siam) on including companies such as Ather Energy, River Mobility and Euler Motors in the ₹25,938-crore programme, which received the Union cabinet's approval in 2021. These companies either hadn't started operations when the scheme was being finalized or did not meet the PLI-Auto’s stiff revenue and net worth criteria.

Big tech’s fat profits conceal unsettling cashflows

A chart is haunting Silicon Valley. The profits of big cloud-computing firms (Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft and Oracle) are rising inexorably. Yet the amount of cashflow they generate after capital spending is falling.
