Ola Electric's flagship product, the S1 Pro scooter, has received the Domestic Value Addition (DVA) certification under the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for the automobile and auto component industry.

Commenting on the certification an Ola Electric spokesperson said, “Receiving the PLI certification for the second product affirms our vertically integrated manufacturing strength marking a significant achievement in advancing India's EV vision. The government's ambitious Auto PLI Scheme is poised to enhance local supply chains, foster domestic manufacturing, and assist companies in achieving economies of scale.”
