Ather Energy’s revenue of Rs 676 crore in Q4 FY25 reflects a 29% year-on-year increase from Rs 523 crore in Q4 FY24, as reported by Entrackr.
This growth was driven by strong sales of its premium scooters, particularly the Rizta model, which contributed to a higher average selling price of Rs 1,42,080 per vehicle.
