Ola Electric Seeks Board Approval for Proposed Rights Issue to Raise Capital
Ola Electric is seeking board approval for a proposed rights issue of equity shares to raise capital, enabling participation from retail, institutional, and promoter shareholders. The company had earlier been authorized to raise up to Rs 1,500 crore, with Rs 780 crore raised through a June 2026 qualified institutional placement. The rights issue, pending board approval at a meeting on September 28, aims to help Ola Electric reach cash breakeven without further funding. Promoter Bhavish Aggarwal's group, holding about 33%, is expected to participate.
