Vishal Chaturvedi, business head for cell operations at Ola Electric, resigned from the company.
His resignation was effective from the close of business hours on December 31, 2025.
The reason cited in his resignation letter was personal commitments.
Ola Electric disclosed the resignation through a regulatory filing under SEBI LODR Regulations and a November 2024 SEBI circular.
The company attached Chaturvedi's resignation letter to the filing.
Chaturvedi joined Ola Electric in 2022 and oversaw the cell division, critical for battery and cell manufacturing capabilities.
Ola Electric has not named a replacement for Chaturvedi yet.

The cell business is central to Ola Electric's plan to make its own parts and improve cost structures and long-term margins.
Ola Electric is expanding the use of its in-house 4680 Bharat Cell in select scooter and motorcycle models.
The company recently got government certification under CMVR norms for the Roadster X+ electric motorcycle powered by the 4680 Bharat Cell battery pack, clearing the way for deliveries.

Ola Electric sells electric scooters (S1 series) and electric motorcycles (Roadster series) in India.
It also sells home energy products: Ola Shakti (battery backup), Ola Shakti Rack, Mahashakti, and MPPT solar charge controller.
Ola Electric offers an EMI calculator with tenure up to 60 months, lowest rate 6.99%, downpayment starting at ₹0, and zero processing fee.
