What’s weighing on Ola Electric stock?
On Monday, 6 July, Mint reported that two major suppliers to Ola Electric Technologies Pvt. Ltd.—the operating arm of listed Ola Electric Mobility Ltd. that contributes nearly all of the group’s revenue—have approached the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) to initiate insolvency proceedings over unpaid dues exceeding ₹40 crore.
The petitions have been filed by Sterling E-Mobility Solutions Ltd., the EV components subsidiary of listed Sterling Tools Ltd., and Anevolve Mando eMobility Pvt. Ltd., a part of the ₹20,000-crore listed Anand Group. Both companies have alleged that Ola Electric Technologies failed to settle payments for components supplied to the company.
According to filings submitted by Ola Electric Technologies with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), outstanding dues of ₹29.8 crore to Sterling and ₹10.8 crore to Anevolve remained unpaid for over 45 days, leading both suppliers to seek legal recourse through the NCLT.
“This is a commercial dispute. The suppliers want their dues paid, while Ola Electric also has claims of its own, having raised issues about the quality of parts. Before reaching the courts, this has been going on for a while between the companies,” a source told Mint.
Sterling E-Mobility manufactures a range of electric vehicle components, including traction motors, motor control units, and DC converters, which are integral to EV powertrain systems. Similarly, Anevolve produces key EV components such as traction motors, controllers, inverters, and AC/DC converters, among others.
