This market is projected to grow multi-fold within the next 5 years.
Commenting on the partnership, Mr. Uday Narang, Founder, and Chairman, Omega Seiki Mobility said, “We are pleased to partner with Grip which is a customer-centric, tech-enabled new-age investment platform. The collaboration will work upon a stronger foothold of the EV in the existing market and accelerate the electrification drive. The absence of affordable financing options has proven to be a critical impediment for low-income patrons to change to EVs. Keeping with the belief system to creating sustainable mobility, OSM scouts various ways to lease and supply electric three-wheelers, adding to the current EV thrust in the country.”
Mr. Vivek Gulati, Co-Founder, and COO, Grip, said, “Since inception, Grip has partnered with 80+ venture capital-backed, high growth companies to enable asset-backed financing through Lease Financing and Inventory Financing. The Mobility sector, with a focus on EVs, has seen the maximum investments on our platform. Electric three-wheelers are an emerging segment, where leasing out the vehicle appears to be a beneficial proposition for both, the company and the retail investors looking to diversify their portfolio beyond market volatility to get fixed returns. One of the fastest-growing and integrated EV players, Omega Seiki Mobility joining hands with us, will prove to be a significant step ahead in democratizing and organizing the EV lease financing sector in India.”
