Hyderabad, August 11, 2025: T-Hub, the world’s largest home for startups, has launched the fourth cohort of Charge, an AIC T-Hub Mobility accelerator Program. The cohort is designed to support startups building solutions for electric mobility, shared transport, fleet management, and related technologies.
AIC at T-Hub is the largest Atal Incubation Centre (AIC) among the 70+ AICs in India. Since its launch in 2022, the AIC T-Hub Mobility program has enabled startups to raise INR 17.16 crore in funding, secure 240 market connections, and file 63 IPs, building a strong pipeline of innovations in automotive and last-mile mobility and transport. Efill, Ermin Automotive, Tride Mobility and Vihaan Electric are some of the notable startups from previous cohorts
The program, supported by AIM (Atal Innovation Mission) and industry partners from automotive and Govt will help 21 selected startups scale their products through mentorship, market access and pilot opportunities. These startups are working across areas like EV charging (Evya.Energy, EV Cult, YANO), shared mobility (HerCabs, ProCar, DriEV Pink), battery and energy platforms (Ayka Control System, EEzy Volt, Joul Energy), AI-led fleet and vehicle solutions (Attento, Zekardo, Bluerock Robotics, Nxtas Mobility) and next-gen vehicles (Revelec AutomotiEV, Folks Force, AirJet Bike).
The cohort is launched in the presence of experts such as Amjad Khan Patan (Vice President & Central Head, Bosch), Ashok Kumar Jha (Engineering Director, ZF Group), Pradeep Kumar Kondabattini (Head of R&D Management & CSO, Hyundai Mobis), Gopalakrishnan VC (Director Automotive and EV, Government of Telangana), Parag Mengaji (Sr. GM, ARAI) and Madhav Arpi Reddy (CEO, Tride Mobility).
Kavikrut, CEO of T-Hub, said: “India’s mobility sector is entering a crucial phase of growth, with electric vehicles and shared transport leading the way for the next decade. At T-Hub, we’re focused on helping founders turn bold ideas into successful businesses. Charge is a step in that direction.”
India’s electric vehicle market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 28.52%, rising from US $5.22 billion in 2024 to US $18.31 billion by 2029. This rapid expansion highlights the need for scalable innovations in batteries, charging infrastructure and shared mobility. Charge: AIC T-Hub Mobility Cohort 4 is designed to support this shift by enabling startups working in these areas to scale faster and address the sector’s evolving demands.
Rajesh Kumar Adla, CEO of AIC T-Hub, emphasised: “Our earlier mobility cohorts have demonstrated the value of deep engagement between startups, corporates and government partners in building sustainable transport solutions. With Charge, we are extending this model to help 21 new startups innovate in EV infrastructure, batteries and shared mobility.”
The cohort will undergo a 12-week program at T-Hub with access to mentors, corporate connections and government partnerships to help them deploy and scale their solutions.
