Ather Energy Scales Up Retail Presence To 700 Experience Centres In FY2026

- April 09, 2026
Bengaluru-based electric vehicle maker Ather Energy has announced the expansion of its retail network to 700 Experience Centres (ECs) across India. The company added more than 350 locations over the past year, doubling its footprint from 331 centres recorded on 31 March 2025.
The expansion of the retail network has contributed to an increase in Ather’s national market share, which reached 18.7 percent in March 2026, according to Vahan data. Growth has been attributed to the Ather Rizta, the company's family scooter, which has recorded sales of over 280,000 units since its launch. Demand also remains consistent for the Ather 450 performance series.
The company’s aggressive expansion focussed on middle and rest of India regions, with scaling up presence in tier-2 and tier-3 cities. Regional market shares increased by approximately 2X in targeted expansion areas.
To support the increased vehicle volume, Ather has expanded its service and charging infrastructure. It now operates over 500 authorised service centres nationwide and its fast charging network has reached 4,357 points.
Ravneet Singh Phokela, Chief Business Officer, Ather Energy, said, “The last year has been about scaling our retail footprint as a key lever for growth. While we’ve increased our Experience Centre count across all geographies, the expansion in Middle India and to some degree in Rest of India has been particularly aggressive. This has allowed us to target new geographies and segments, which have led to strong volume and market share gains. We believe we still have headroom for growth, and will continue on this path over the next few quarters.”
