Tiger Global exits Ather Energy with ₹1,204 crore share sale ahead of Q2 results
The U.S.-based investor offloads its entire 5% stake in the EV maker through open market deals.
Notably, Tiger Global had also pared its stake in Ola Electric earlier this year, in May 2025, signaling a continued realignment of its investments in India’s growing EV ecosystem.
U.S.-based investment firm Tiger Global, through its entity Internet Fund III Pte Ltd, has fully exited Ather Energy, selling its entire 5% stake in the electric two-wheeler maker via open market transactions on November 6, 2025.
According to exchange data, the fund sold 1 crore shares on the NSE at an average price of ₹623.56 per share and 93 lakh shares on the BSE at an average price of ₹620.45 per share. The combined sale fetched approximately ₹1,204 crore.
As of September 30, Tiger Global held 1.93 crore shares, representing 5% of Ather Energy’s paid-up capital.

The exit comes just days before Ather Energy’s Q2 FY26 financial results, slated for release on November 10.
Notably, Tiger Global had also pared its stake in Ola Electric earlier this year, in May 2025, signaling a continued realignment of its investments in India’s growing EV ecosystem.
