## About

Founded in 2016 in Bangalore, India, Ultraviolette Automotive Private Limited develops advanced electric motorcycles. The company is co-founded by Narayan Subramaniam, who serves as CEO and Niraj Rajmohan (CTO). In September 2026, Ultraviolette Automotive Private Limited raised INR 8.138 billion in series E funding co-led by Yali Capital and TDK Ventures, with participation from Speciale Invest, Qualcomm Ventures, TVS Motor Company Limited, Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd., and Lingotto Investment Management. The round was part of a larger INR 13.80 billion series E funding. As a part of the transaction Lip-Bu Tan joins as an adviser in the company.

Ultraviolette Automotive focuses on the creation of high-performance electric motorcycles, including models like the F77 SuperStreet, F77 Mach 2, Tesseract, and Shockwave. Their innovations include the SRB-10 battery pack, which comes with a warranty of up to 100,000 kilometers or five years. The motorcycles are tailored for urban commuters and motorcycle enthusiasts, featuring advanced safety technologies. The company targets key metropolitan markets such as Bangalore, Delhi, and Pune, appealing to environmentally conscious consumers.

Ultraviolette Automotive Private Limited generates revenue primarily through the design, manufacture, and sale of premium electric motorcycles and two-wheel electric vehicles, including models such as the F77 and X-47. The company also earns revenue from the sale of vehicle accessories, spare parts, maintenance and after-sales services, and software-enabled vehicle features. Additionally, it generates revenue through domestic and international vehicle sales, leveraging its proprietary battery technology, power electronics, and vehicle platforms across multiple electric mobility products.

The company plans to use the September 2026 funding to scale production of its F77, X-47, Tesseract, and Shockwave electric vehicles, develop next-generation EV platforms, and expand across the United States, Latin America, and Southeast Asia, while strengthening its battery technology, power electronics, vehicle architecture, and software capabilities to support long-term global growth.
