With EV Sales Slowing, Can Startups Spark A Funding Comeback?
- Private funding in the Indian startup ecosystem surged past $12 Bn across 993 deals in 2024, with a 20% year-on-year growth, but electric vehicle (EV) startups saw a 31% funding deceleration to $624 Mn in 43 deals.
- Investments in EV startups had peaked in 2022 at $1.08 Bn but dropped to $901 Mn in 2023, with late-stage startups raising $1.08 Bn and growth-stage peers attracting $2.21 Bn in the last decade.
- Despite the slowdown, Ather Energy became India's second EV unicorn in 2024, securing $71 Mn in funding and an IPO-bound startup raised $7 Mn in debt.
- Venture debt rounds, like Ola Electric's $50 Mn and Euler Motors' $24 Mn, became popular among EV startups, with Euler Motors securing $20 Mn in debt in 2025.
- Investors have become cautious due to regulatory scrutiny, lack of clarity on incentives, and profitability concerns, leading to a drop in average funding ticket size and waning consumer interest in homegrown EVs.
- Government push towards EV adoption and targets like 30% private car sales, 70% commercial vehicle sales, and others by 2030 is driving investor interest, with projections of a $132.2 Bn EV market by 2030.
- Battery technology, charging infrastructure, and BaaS are key investment areas for EV funding, while concerns remain over high production costs, supply chain disruptions, and intense competition in the EV market.
- The road ahead for EV funding in India faces challenges amidst global economic concerns, government policies, and investor caution, with uncertainties surrounding battery-swapping and manufacturing segments.
- EV funding scenarios are evolving with companies adjusting pricing, reducing cash burns, and relying more on debt financing, with a keen eye on IPOs like Ather Energy's potential valuation reaching $2.4 Bn.
