Ola Electric: Sinking market share
Data from the Vahan portal of the central government revealed that Ola Electric had sold 23,965 electric scooter units in the month of September. This is the second consecutive month of declining month-on-month sales and comes just two months after the company went public in a much-followed IPO (Initial Public Offering).
