The push signals a pivot to middle and smaller markets to convert scooter demand into lasting share gains.

Overview

  • Ather, which announced Thursday it crossed 700 Experience Centres, added more than 350 outlets in FY26 to nearly double its footprint from 351 a year earlier.
  • Vahan registration data shows Ather held 18.7% of India’s electric two-wheeler market in March 2026.
  • Sales of the family-focused Rizta have passed 2.8 lakh units since launch, with steady interest in the 450 series bolstering volumes.
  • Ownership support has widened as the company surpassed 500 authorised service centres, with its Ather Grid fast-charging network at about 4,357 points as of December 31, 2025.
  • Expansion in Middle India, the Rest of India and deeper into Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities aims to reach new customer segments beyond Ather’s South India stronghold.
