What to watch

  • Quarterly gross margin trajectory and EBITDA loss narrowing pace
  • Any change in FAME-III / state EV subsidy structure
  • Competitor price cuts or new model launches
  • Institutional/promoter shareholding changes and lock-in expiries
  • Ather likely accelerates Experience Centre and service-network expansion beyond 700/548 to defend market share
  • Management guides on EBITDA breakeven timeline to sustain the profitability narrative
  • Peers (Ola Electric, TVS, Bajaj) intensify pricing/feature competition and promotional push
  • Brokerages issue fresh target revisions; some initiate coverage or upgrade post-results
