AtherGrid Locations

Banaswadi patio cafe charging station location is not showing in the app?

Hey Patio Cafe is currently not operational and hence we’ve removed it form the App. Once they start resuming operations, we’ll add it back.

South Chennai is poorly served for Ather Grid charge points. In fact our 450 has not been connected by us to the Ather Grid at all. It would be useful only if there’s a charge point within 3km from our residence. What’s the trouble in Ather tying up with the Oil majors for providing charge points at gas stations? Tesla’s success is primarily because they provided the charge infrastructure to make their cars almost as easy to charge (fuel) up as ICE vehicles.

We would be glad if Ather Charging Point gets installed here at Frazer Town as i had seen couple of Ather Scooter moving in this locality. Hence please do consider the request as Ulsoor Lake Point which is nearby our point is not in working condition.

Ather @tarun announced in Feb meeting that more Charging points will come in South zone at Taramani, Sholinganallur, Thoraipakkam in addition to Madras square this year. They maybe delayed due to lockdown situation but instead of depending on Grids alone, it will be better if Ather can provide a Fast charging Portable charger for sales though it maybe costly. This will be exact need of APC in general and your idea of tieup with ICE fuel bunks (like Shell/Essar) for charging points is another solution @abhishek.balaji for our Grids.

This is a good news to tie-up with a big retail chain…

A little disappointing as per this

Don’t worry, Chennai and Bangalore will still get lots of Ather Grid love. What this means is that when we’re looking to install an Ather grid point in a location, we now have the option to speed up the process by using one the Sangeetha Mobiles retail locations.

This is true, Tesla’s success does make a difference but ather should make sure to install chargers only in the premio bunks like shell/reliance as they have stores where we could pass time and every person filling petrol will burn looking at the vehicle charging :joy:

Dear Abhishek,Does it also apply to Sangetha Mobiles in Kolkata as well?

What’s special/different about Sangeetha Mobiles of Kolkata? It’s a Pan-India agreement that Ather and SM have signed, Kolkata is very much part of India, it’s a new city for Ather…so ticks all the boxes. Sorry If I’m missing something but want to understand from where you are coming from.

By the way why are you answering my query? I had mentioned the name whom to answer. Don’t be very oversmart.

@umesh.garnaik: FWIW, @hemanth.anand is a moderator on the forum and has been nominated by Ather as an authority to respond on topics being discussed here :slight_smile:

That is the beauty of a Community Forum. It’s a platform for discussion by every one and not a place for just two people to chat with one another.

Read the Community guidelines in the link below. Especially point number 5 https://forum.atherenergy.com/t/community-guidelines-read-before-posting-on-ather-forum/47

If there is something specific to Sangeetha Mobiles of Kolkata compared to others because of which you have a question, do let everyone here know. If you do not wish to share, you may choose to ignore my question too.

The same number 5 is also applicable to you The way you write the last line of your message and Kolkata is very much part of India. Anyway I didn’t find SM in Kolkata though I am from Kolkata. Can you please share the details if you have?

I have no business here on this topic but purely from an outsider’s view point, the tone of your message could be neutral and not tending towards blunt.

Sangeetha Mobiles has a presence in South India. I doubt they operate in Kolkata.

Hey folks,

  1. The community is not a place for individual conversations, so please keep that in mind. If you have a question, the other community members would be your first responders, and would be the best to give you more information.

  2. While we’ve all been online and conversing through text extensively in the last few months, it’s very difficult for people to understand the tone of someone’s message. Let’s give the benefit of doubt to the other person, and stick to the point.

This community is a great place for people to learn from both Ather and from other members on the community, and getting different view points and feedback is one of the fantastic things about this community.
