Ola Electric's PLI Provision Reversal, Mobility Startups Seek Funding, MPs Propose Social Media Age Limits
Ola Electric reversed a Rs 57 crore penalty provision under the government's battery production-linked incentive scheme without formal approval, narrowing its quarterly loss but prompting auditor concerns. Meanwhile, electric mobility startups Yulu and Bounce Infinity seek fresh funding amid rising delivery demand, shifting focus from consumer rentals to delivery fleets. Additionally, Indian MPs have introduced private members' bills proposing age-based restrictions on social media use to protect minors, though these are unlikely to be enacted before the current parliamentary session ends.
