EV Intelligence Startup Vecmocon Attracts INR 74 Cr in Series A Extension

0

In a compelling development that underscores investor confidence in India’s electric vehicle (EV) component ecosystem, Vecmocon Technologies, a Delhi-based deep-tech EV intelligence company, is set to raise USD 8.7 million (~INR 74 crore) in a combination of primary and secondary funding. The round, an extension of its USD 10 million (~INR 86 crore) Series A secured in late 2024, is led by Aavishkaar Capital with continued support from Ecosystem Integrity Fund (EIF) and Blume Ventures.

Vecmocon Series A round

Primary Capital Infusion and Strategic Investor Mix

Regulatory filings reveal that Vecmocon’s board has approved the issuance of 12,067 preference and equity shares to raise INR 50.4 crore in primary capital. EIF, which led the previous tranche of the Series A round, will contribute INR 21 crore, while Aavishkaar will inject the remaining INR 29.4 crore.

This move signifies not only financial backing but strategic validation. EIF, known for its focus on sustainable investments, and Aavishkaar, a veteran in impact-oriented capital, bring more than just funding—they bring networks, guidance, and sectoral insight. This investment follows last year’s Series A participation from British International Investment and Blume Ventures, all aligning around a vision of a localized, full-stack EV tech platform.

Tessellate Ventures’ Profitable Exit

In the secondary transaction worth INR 23.7 crore, early-stage backer Tessellate Tech Ventures has made a full exit, selling its 2.97% stake for INR 15.85 crore. Having originally invested INR 1.5 crore, Tessellate now walks away with a staggering 10X return—one of the most notable VC exits in India’s clean mobility space this year.

Alongside Tessellate, individual investors Tina Goyal, Nishit Aggarwal, and Satyam Darmora have also exited fully, while the company’s founding team is divesting a small portion of their holdings. The secondary shares are being acquired by Blume Ventures and Aavishkaar Capital.

Valuation, Cap Table, and Financial Health

Post-allotment, Vecmocon is estimated to be valued at around USD 63 million (~INR 533 crore). The updated cap table post-round will see Blume Ventures emerge as the largest external stakeholder with a 13.27% share, followed by EIF (12.6%), Aavishkaar (7.51%), and Tiger Global (7.17%).

Financially, the company reported operating revenue of INR 15.87 crore for FY24—nearly a 4X jump year-on-year. Despite this growth, it reported a net loss of INR 6 crore, a gap that the company appears to be closing as it aims for profitability in FY25, reportedly achieved in early 2025 per internal sources.

Vecmocon’s Unique Position in the EV Value Chain

Founded in 2016 by IIT alumni Peeyush Asati, Adarshkumar Balaraman, and Shivam Wankhede, Vecmocon has taken a differentiated path in India’s crowded EV space. Instead of building electric vehicles, the startup focuses on the intelligence layer—offering essential EV components like Battery Management Systems (BMS), vehicle telematics, instrument clusters, and smart chargers.

Vecmocon’s solutions, currently embedded in over 1,00,000 EVs, go beyond hardware. With platforms like i-VEC Drive, i-VEC Serve, and Finsight, the company supports OEMs, financiers, and fleet operators with real-time diagnostics, performance analytics, and over-the-air updates.

Its full-stack architecture is built in-house and optimized for Indian conditions—ranging from heat tolerance to road irregularities—addressing long-standing pain points in imported EV systems.

Market Implications and Investor Takeaway

Vecmocon Series A round reinforces a broader thesis playing out in India’s EV landscape: investors are moving away from flashy vehicle assemblers to critical enabling tech. With battery safety, intelligence, and data analytics becoming central to fleet economics and regulatory compliance, Vecmocon is hitting all the right notes.

Looking Ahead

With a profitable model combining hardware and SaaS-like recurring revenue streams, Vecmocon is now setting its sights on expansion. The company plans to:

  • Expand its Noida R&D lab to develop high-voltage and AI-integrated EV systems.
  • Establish 10+ service hubs for on-ground diagnostics and OEM support.
  • Align with global compliance standards to enter Southeast Asian and EMEA markets.

It has been a beneficiary of India’s FAME-II policy and “Make in India” initiative, and its roadmap closely aligns with national priorities around clean mobility and import substitution.
