Ather Energy Expands Service Footprint to 500 Centres
On March 17, 2026, Ather Energy Limited announced a major operational milestone: the expansion of its authorized service network to 500 centres across India. This significant growth, achieved in tandem with its expanding retail footprint, reinforces the company’s dedication to ensuring comprehensive service support in every city where its electric scooters are sold.
In FY26, Ather Energy nearly doubled its service network, growing from 277 to 500 service centres. This rapid scaling reflects the increasing customer base and the critical need for reliable after-sales support as the company grows.
