The company has partners working collaboratively on battery recycle and battery second life management and has set up multi-step charging systems with AC chargers and DC fast chargers in residential communities and showrooms. It also provides a 6-way charging ecosystem to customers, which includes a free-of-cost AC fast-charger (installed at the customer’s home/office), an extended charging network, a plug-and-charge cable onboard, charge-on-the-go with roadside assistance, and community chargers. The company has installed around 500 chargers in 500 days in residentials and communities across India, and a total network of over 15,000 charging touchpoints nationwide, including public and home chargers.
