Dr Anil Wali Managing Director, FITT discussed how this program came into existence. “Many ecosystem enablers like incubators, accelerators, corporates, investors etc. have been trying to address the challenges faced by the start-ups in stabilizing and scaling up. The conclusion we reached, was not singular, but a group of issues that impact startups, especially founders, during their journey towards sustainability. If the issue is complex enough not to be resolved by one of us, why not join hands with other strong ecosystem partners?” asked Dr Wali.

Dr. Abha Rishi, CEO, AIC-BIMTECH invited the young founders to participate in the program.

Huddle, growX partner to bring India’s 1st Acceleration program for Electric Vehicle Startups

: RACEnergy and Cell Propulsion are the two shortlisted start-ups who have been brought onto their portfolio

Huddle, a startup incubator and accelerator, in partnership with growX ventures, an early stage venture fund, launched India’s first acceleration program for startups in the electric vehicles industry in June 2019.

As part of the program, selected startups would be provided access to a dedicated mentor from Huddle, seed investment led by growX ventures and business development and relevant pilot opportunities with companies such as Exide, TATA and Swiggy to name a few partner organisations that were supporting the Huddle - growX EV accelerator.

After evaluating over 170 applications from Indian start-ups building solutions in segments within EV like charging infrastructure, battery swapping, micro mobility, electric vehicle components and data analytics solutions, Huddle and growX have announced RACEnergy and Cell Propulsion as the two shortlisted start-ups who have been brought onto their portfolio and will undergo the acceleration program.

Founded by BITS Pilani graduates Arun Shreyas and Gautam M, RACEnergy is building a high performance retrofit kit for converting existing three wheelers autos to electric and providing energy infrastructure support through its proprietary battery swapping stations. “Electric vehicle adoption has been the greatest in the three-wheeler segment in India but only for low-speed vehicles or electric rickshaws. High-speed three wheelers still remain unaffordable for the bulk of drivers and the supply is limited,” said Sanil Sachar, partner at Huddle. “RACEnergy will enable auto drivers to transition to electric, thereby allowing them to drive more, reduce operating costs and earn more per ride.” The startup has received funding from growX Ventures, Prophetic Ventures and other prolific angel investors; as they kick start their association with Huddle and growX. 

The second shortlisted startup is Cell Propulsion, which is building an integrated electric powertrain for light commercial and heavy commercial vehicles adapted for Indian climatic conditions. Most manufacturers rely on imports for fulfilling their supply chain needs for electric vehicles. Cell Propulsion aims to provide an indigenous solution by providing durable, affordable and customized products in India. Founded by Nakul Kukar, Supratim Naskar, Paras Kaushal and Sridhar Ramasubban, Cell Propulsion has successfully completed the conversion of a diesel bus to electric in a pilot with Bangalore Municipal Transportation Corporation (BMTC). The Bangalore-based startup also counts Endiya Partners as one of its investors.

Huddle announced that it is still in conversation with startups to accelerate as part of the program which they have stated will be an ongoing process for them, as they focus on startups building solutions unique to India. “There is no universal playbook for electric vehicles and solutions that have worked well in developed countries cannot be copy-pasted to India.” said Ishaan Khosla, partner at Huddle. “Both RACEnergy and Cell Propulsion have an in-depth understanding of India ecosystem and we are proud to be partners in their respective visions”.

Apart from the two startups shortlisted as part of venturing into the EV sector, Huddle has also incubated companies such as leading health super food startup Ketofy, blockchain company 1Ramp, data over sound technology company Trillbit, and a portfolio of over 20 ventures, that include several that have successfully raised funding and traction across their sectors. Delhi-based growX ventures is a deep technology fund  that focused on seed and pre-series A investments. Its portfolio includes companies such as Locus, Meddo, Progcap and Advantage Club among others.

Gurinder, who is the founder, came up with this product post his travels around India and realizing the need for such a product mainly in tier 2/3 and rural areas.

Gurinder was born in Delhi in 1972 and his family hails from Amritsar.

He holds a commerce degree from Delhi University and was an avid sportsman during his college years. Post college, Gurinder studied textile and garment technologies and set up his own silk fabrication factory in 1995. He possesses more than 20 years of experience in silk manufacturing, import, and distribution PAN India.

In 2013, Gurinder read an article in TOI about 42 school-going girls in Amritsar who resorted to using old socks, ash, and sawdust during their menstrual cycle. This greatly exposed them to vaginal infections that could severely deteriorate their health. Discouraged by their plight, Gurinder extensively researched the field of menstrual hygiene and found that this problem was widespread in India. Existing solutions were either inaccessible or too expensive for the masses. During this study, he stumbled upon the concept of menstrual cups. While these were reusable, they were expensive, not easily available and lacked authentic health certifications. Determined to solve this problem, Gurinder started his own line of menstrual cups, known as Silky Cup. He created a safe, reusable, easy to dispose of, comfortable and hygienic solution that would uniquely cater to the Indian demographic.

Silky Cup has been distributed PAN India since 2015 and close to 90,000 units have been sold thus far.
