In total, the transactions accounted for over 1.5% of Ola Electric's equity. The stock hit a record low of Rs 31.11 today. At current levels, Ola Electric shares are down 68.63% from their 52-week high of Rs 99.90 touched on 26 December 2024. In a statement, Ola Electric said the sale was a one-time and limited monetisation by the founder at a personal level to fully repay a promoter-level loan of Rs 260 crore. The repayment will lead to the release of all previously pledged 3.93% shares, removing a key overhang on the stock. The company clarified that the transaction does not involve any dilution of promoter control. Post the sale, the promoter group is expected to continue holding around 34% stake in Ola Electric. The company added that the move will have no impact on operations, governance or long-term strategy, and that it reflects the founder's intent to run the business with zero promoter pledge.
