India’s Exicom Tele-Systems (EXIC.NS), a supplier for car manufacturers like Mahindra & Mahindra (MAHM.NS) and MG Motor, anticipates that its electric vehicle (EV) charger division will contribute to half of its annual revenue by 2030, according to comments made by its CEO to Reuters. As part of its commitment to clean energy, the Indian government has reduced import taxes on certain EV models and allocated billions in incentives for locally produced EVs and components.
Exicom’s chargers are included with six out of ten electric vehicles sold in India. Currently, a significant portion of the company’s revenue comes from its essential power business, which manufactures lithium-ion batteries and power systems for telecommunications companies across India, Southeast Asia, and Africa.
The EV charging segment, launched in 2019, generated 2.43 billion rupees ($28.7 million) in revenue during the fiscal year 2024, accounting for roughly a quarter of Exicom’s total revenue. CEO Anant Nahata indicated that the firm aims to double this revenue by 2030 as the electric vehicle market in India grows at an annual rate between 30% and 50%.
To achieve this goal, Exicom plans to begin production of EV chargers at a new facility in Hyderabad next year, which will more than quadruple its production capacity in India. Along with expanding into markets in Southeast Asia, Europe, and the US, the company also hopes to connect with more EV manufacturers and charging station owners abroad. Earlier this year, Exicom announced its intention to acquire the Australian company Tritium, which includes a manufacturing plant in Tennessee, USA.
