Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) for the quarter also stood at a negative ₹281 crore compared to a loss of ₹690 crore last year.
Revenue for the quarter more than halved, declining by 56.6% on a year-on-year basis to ₹265 crore from ₹611 crore in the base quarter.
The management identified service as the primary constraint on demand throughout FY26 but reported that it has now "materially stabilized". Average service turnaround time (TAT) was reduced by 88% from October 2025 to March 2026, and the service backlog was cut significantly.

Consolidated gross margins reached 38.5% in Q4 FY26, up from 13.7% in Q4 FY25. While management noted that margins might moderate in Q1 and Q2 FY27 due to commodity inflation and pricing strategies to accelerate growth, they stated they have the "margin buffer" to remain aggressive on pricing.
According to the shareholder letter, Ola Electric's Gigafactory is entering its next phase, with a focus on ramping commercial manufacturing toward 6 GWh in FY27. The long-term goal is to utilize the Gigafactory as a platform for both mobility and energy storage.
