New Cuttack facility to cut delivery time and expand EV production capacity
After witnessing exceptional growth and strong customer acceptance in Odisha and West Bengal, Zelio E-Mobility plans to set up a new manufacturing facility in Cuttack, Odisha.
By establishing this plant closer to its customer base, delivery timelines will be significantly reduced. Currently, it takes almost a week for products to be shipped from the company’s Hisar, Haryana facility. The new unit will also help reduce logistics costs and improve supply efficiency.
The plant will focus only on manufacturing electric two-wheelers. Discussions about the plant’s layout, machinery, production capacity, and the use of eco-friendly technologies are currently in progress. More details will be shared once the technical planning is complete. The company is also in discussions with the Odisha government regarding potential incentives and support, and further updates will be provided as the process progresses.
With an investment of less than INR 3 crore, the facility is now operational and is expected to start generating revenue soon. By FY26–FY27, the company expects the facility to contribute a significant share of its overall revenue, supported by rising demand in Eastern India and increasing EV adoption across South India.
Commenting on the plan, Kunal Arya, Managing Director of Zelio E-Mobility, said, “Eastern India has emerged as one of our strongest growth regions, with customers showing exceptional trust in our products. Setting up the Cuttack facility brings us closer to our riders and dealers, enabling faster deliveries, lower logistics costs, and improved serviceability. Notably, this expansion marks an important step in strengthening India’s EV ecosystem and creating long-term value for our customers and partners.”
The facility is expected to generate employment for approximately 60 to 100 local individuals across production, operations, and related functions, reinforcing Zelio’s commitment to regional economic development.
