Ola Electric, India’s prominent electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer, has responded to reports regarding inconsistencies in its February 2025 sales data. The company clarified that the discrepancies were due to a temporary vehicle registration backlog, dismissing concerns that the issue was linked to any regulatory problems.
In a statement issued on Friday, Ola Electric emphasized that its sales figures remain strong and that the backlog is being steadily cleared. The company reported that daily vehicle registrations have already surpassed half of its three-month daily sales average, indicating that the situation is improving.
Backlog Being Resolved, Full Clearance by March End
Ola Electric announced that 40% of the registration backlog for February has already been resolved and expressed confidence that the remaining cases will be fully cleared by the end of March. The company attributed the delays to operational adjustments rather than any internal inefficiencies. It also explained that recent changes in vendor partnerships played a role in creating the temporary disruption.
The company had recently ended its contracts with two major nationwide vendors who were previously responsible for vehicle registrations. This shift in partnerships briefly affected the registration process, but Ola Electric assured customers and stakeholders that the backlog is under control and being cleared swiftly.
Rejection of Regulatory Concerns and Media Reports
Ola Electric criticized certain media outlets for misinterpreting the situation and spreading misleading information. The company rejected suggestions that the sales data issue was related to regulatory challenges. Instead, it described the coverage as part of a “misinformation campaign” driven by vested interests.
In its official statement, Ola Electric said, “This is a straightforward case of a temporary registration backlog, yet certain media outlets and vested interests have deliberately misrepresented it as a regulatory issue through misinformation and smear campaigns.”
The company stressed that there are no underlying regulatory concerns affecting its operations and reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining transparency in its sales reporting.
Ola Electric: Focus on Sales Growth and Customer Trust
Despite the temporary registration delays, Ola Electric continues to focus on strengthening its sales and scaling up its operations. The company’s robust daily registration figures highlight sustained consumer demand for its electric vehicles. With the backlog gradually clearing, Ola Electric aims to enhance customer satisfaction by streamlining processes and maintaining efficiency in future vehicle registrations.
The company’s clarification comes at a time when the electric vehicle market in India is growing rapidly. Ola Electric remains a key player in the sector, driving innovation and pushing for widespread EV adoption. By addressing the temporary registration backlog and dismissing misinformation, Ola Electric seeks to reassure customers and maintain trust in its brand.
As the backlog is expected to be fully resolved by March, the company looks forward to continuing its strong performance in the EV market and supporting India’s transition to sustainable mobility.
