Ather Energy Reports Q2 Profit and Plans Capacity Expansion Amid Rising Demand
Ather Energy reported a net profit of Rs 1.26 crore in Q2 FY27, reversing a loss of Rs 154 crore a year earlier, driven by a 62-63% revenue increase to around Rs 1,464-1,527 crore. The company sold approximately 93,000 electric scooters, a 42% rise year-on-year, with strong demand leading to 98% capacity utilization at its Hosur plant. EBITDA turned positive, improving margins despite higher input costs. Ather plans to invest Rs 122 crore to expand production capacity by 225,000 units by Q2 FY28 to meet growing demand.
