Yup last year was technically their worst ytd. Hope they still have shareholders quota for Heromotocorp holders in this issue.
Cannot expect anything in coming 2-3 years I feel so itās goona be +4years for sure the way they re going with this
What happened to Tarunās weāre profitable now/ breaken even?
Thatās what you say to invigorate fresh investor and calm the holders; also they meant that on the product not on the company itself. Edit:By product I mean 450 everything else is in separate tranche.
Ahh yess. Now I recall, something.
Itās now official, Ather is now āAther Energy LTDā
Weak GMP. How long till Tarun realises he has ruined the company?
i mean who is interested in a company that still produces 10 year old scooters with a washing machine motor and service costs higher than a freaking car like BYD Seal or Mahindra BE 6.
Nothing stands out about Ather except for their self-proclaimed āpremiumā products and exorbitant prices.
True, I wonder what was going in their minds with this IPO pricing, no wonder there is a Weak GMP. There might be a huge price drop or Crash after they enter the market.
No of rides taken by the users of Ather EV over last 2.5 years. I can see it is steadily increasing. So, the product and sale wise they are doing good.
The market is not accepting their price of IPO?
Source: I track my rides with and it comes with ride id, which is an incremental number. The difference between two ride ids picked on 10th of every month gives this data. This morning it crossed 1,395,114,735 (~1.4 billion) rides totally.
That is also due to general volatility of the market; sentiment for risk is running low due to heavy consolidation which has affected the retail insanity to shore up any and all ipo due to listing gains and other such small greed as well as an anticipation of long winter in the market.

Strengths include the Ather Grid charging network and proprietary software, but profitability and competition remain challenges.
Should You Apply?
Pros: Strong retail interest, long-term EV growth potential, early mover in Indiaās EV space. Cons: Low institutional demand, high valuation, significant losses, and flat GMP. With one day left, subscription might pick up, but the current trend suggests a lukewarm debut. Long-term investors might find value, but short-term gains look uncertain.

Such a worst response. Will tarun still give a smirk or wake up?
I was also excited before but now donāt want to invest a dime in a company where OG are not cared for feedback nor innovation if Geiger an upper hand. Now itās all money minting only. Hope they get it soon
Not trying to vindicate Ather but unlike being a ācustomerā of the company isnāt that what you exactly want as an āinvestorā.
Well said cannot imagine investing 14k just for it to drop 140ā¹ in a month
If this was to happen when back in time whare they launched gen 3 with a bigger battery pack it would have made such a different not gonna lie
Idk why they lost that momentum hope they get it back
The retail investors are actually ones who booked it
