Mahindra, Ola, Ather gear up for big launches in August? SUVs, AI scooters and new EV tech expected

Three of India's prominent automotive companies are preparing for significant product and technology unveilings in August, in what is shaping up to be a pivotal month for the domestic mobility sector. The Mahindra & Mahindra will headline on 15 August with the introduction of four Vision SUV concepts: Vision T, Vision S, Vision SXT and Vision X, developed on its newly engineered Freedom NU platform. The monocoque architecture, known internally as the New Flexible Architecture (NFA), is designed to accommodate petrol, diesel, hybrid and fully electric powertrains, reported HT Auto. Production will take place at the company's Chakan facility, which has been allocated an annual capacity target of up to 1.2 lakh units. Mahindra's teaser campaign under the hashtag Freedom_NU has provided early glimpses of the concepts. The Vision T carries design cues reminiscent of the Thar, with pronounced wheel arches and a rugged stance. The Vision S exhibits similarities to the Scorpio, suggesting potential for an electric interpretation of the model. The Vision SXT adopts a pick-up inspired SUV format, which may evolve from Mahindra's earlier Global Pik-Up concept, while the Vision X is more compact and urban-oriented, indicating suitability for hybrid or electric family segments. Unlike a conventional model reveal, Mahindra's focus this year is platform-first. The Freedom NU's adaptability is intended to reduce engineering timelines and costs, enabling a broader range of vehicles without the need for entirely new structures. In addition to the four concepts, the updated Bolero Neo is anticipated, potentially adopting the same underpinnings. On the same day, Ola Electric will host its annual 'Sankalp' event at its Krishnagiri Gigafactory. Central to the announcements could be MoveOS 6, the latest iteration of its operating system for electric scooters. The update will likely incorporate artificial intelligence tools, including a chatbot, voice-assisted commands and predictive servicing, developed by Ola's AI unit, Krutrim. Ola has also previewed the 'Moonshot' Diamondhead motorcycle and is expected to enter the sports scooter category, a move that could expand its product portfolio significantly. Later in August, Ather Energy will stage the third edition of its Community Day. The Bengaluru-based firm is anticipated to reveal its EL platform, incorporating a revised powertrain, updated electronics, and battery components adapted from the existing 450 platform. Designed for scalability, the EL platform will likely underpin future scooters for Indian and export markets, with cost efficiency in mind. Ather could also debut its next-generation fast charging system and AtherStack 7.0 software update, which is expected to add new features and refine performance. Collectively, these launches point towards a strategic shift among Indian automakers to create flexible vehicle platforms, integrate software-driven features and expand electric mobility offerings in both SUV and two-wheeler categories.

Ola Electric likely to enter sports scooter segment

Ola Electric is likely to announce its foray into the sports scooter segment on August 15 as part of its plans to expand its product portfolio, according to sources. The company plans to unveil the new range at its upcoming annual event on August 15. In the run-up to its annual 'Sankalp' event, the company on Wednesday dropped a teaser on what looks like a sportier version of its scooter line-up. As per sources, Ola Electric is gearing up to expand its portfolio with its entry into the sports scooter segment. According to people in the know, these sports scooters could feature artificial intelligence features powered by Ola Krutrim. The sports scooter segment has been taking off in India on the back of products such as the TVS Ntorq, Yamaha Aerox and Aprilia SR160. Earlier this year, the company unveiled its Gen 3 scooter portfolio that boasted of first-in-segment features like brake-by-wire, dual ABS, and variants with its own 4680 cell.

Startup IPOs deliver only 36% long-term return for investors: Report

Investors in initial public offerings (IPOs) of new-age tech companies have earned just 36% average returns, and only 32% of those who invested after listing have made gains, according to a report by advisory firm Client Associates. Titled The New-Age IPO Performance Analysis, the report examined 25 new-age tech IPOs launched between May 2020 and June 2025 across sectors including fintech, logistics, consumer internet, and software-as-a-service (SaaS). It assessed investor returns at three stages, pre-IPO, IPO, and post-IPO, using the BSE 500 as a benchmark. Mixed outcomes Startups like Ixigo and Zaggle delivered strong pre-IPO returns of 89.21% and 62.47%, respectively, while Ola Electric posted a 60.13% loss in the same phase. Overall, pre-IPO investments generated average returns of 43%, outperforming IPO and post-IPO investments. 'This assessment tells you that most prices have been driven by frenzy rather than business fundamentals,' said Shashank Agarwal, associate director at Client Associates. 'Unless you're an institutional investor, most retail investors chase market noise.' While companies such as Zomato and PolicyBazaar have fared better, others including Paytm, Ola Electric, and Mobikwik have significantly underperformed. The report argued that hype and narrative, rather than strong fundamentals, have driven most retail participation. IPO wave In 2024 alone, 13 new-age tech companies went public, raising close to Rs 29,070 crore. The list includes Swiggy, Go Digit, TBO Tek, Awfis, Ola Electric, FirstCry, Ixigo, and Unicommerce. The surge in tech-led IPOs has been fuelled by digital adoption, favourable demographics, and strong capital inflows, a shift from earlier IPO waves dominated by industrial and BFSI compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of companies listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange rose 121% between September 2021 and May 2025, compared with just 37% for those listed on the National Stock Exchange. Investors in BSE-listed shares earned 84% more annually than those holding NSE's unlisted shares over the past four years. Agarwal said BSE's listed status gives investors confidence, while NSE's IPO delays and regulatory challenges have made investors more cautious. Despite this, retail investors are actively buying unlisted shares of market infrastructure firms such as NSE and the National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL), even though these are illiquid and hard to trade. Unlisted vs listed returns Over the last four years, NSE's unlisted shares have returned 37%, while listed rival BSE surged 194%. Similarly, NSDL's unlisted shares gained 35% compared with a 69% return from listed competitor CDSL. The report concluded that while pre-IPO investments in select new-age companies have delivered strong returns, the IPO and post-IPO phases have been far less rewarding for most retail investors. It cautioned that chasing hype without assessing business fundamentals exposes investors to significant downside risk.
