On August 20, 2025, the electric vehicle (EV) and auto component market in India experienced a mixed trading day with strong gains for some stocks and declines for others. While some stocks saw a rush of buying interest, others experienced a very strong selling inclination. The day was dominated by buying or selling on market platforms indicating an overall mindset of some precaution among investors.
Ola Electric Mobility Ltd. was the big story of the day gaining +18.70% at ₹53.21 and being the top-gainer. Clearly investor sentiment is optimistic with Ola’s spate of new electric two-wheeler models just recently revealed at their dedicated electric vehicle manufacturing facility, along with IPO discussions pending.
Among the auto component and EV-linked firms, Exicom Tele-Systems Ltd. jumped 2.63% at ₹146.21, while Uniparts India gained 2.33% at ₹423.20, and Uno Minda added 1.23% at ₹1,234.80. Olectra Greentech, a key electric bus manufacturer, also recorded a 1.40% rise at ₹1,528.80, signaling continued faith in India’s e-bus market growth.
On the other hand, several frontline stocks slipped. Bharat Forge fell 2.50% at ₹1,158.90, Bharat Electronics dipped 2.16% at ₹371.85, and Minda Corporation declined 1.73% at ₹507.95.Auto major Tata Motors also eased 1.53% at ₹689.60, even after strong long-term EV ambitions.
Meanwhile, Amara Raja Energy & Mobility slipped just 0.24% and Hero MotoCorp garnered a modest 0.35% at ₹5,136.00, advising a neutral sentiment. Global auto components leader Bosch added 0.19% at ₹39,935.00, showing resilience to being pushed around by how the rest of the sector is faring.
Overall, the EV and auto component space showed a split in investor sentiment. Ola Electric’s parabolic rally helped support positive sentiment in the sector, with some larger heavyweights such as Tata Motors and Bharat Forge curling the sentiment downtrend in the same picture.
Market watchers believe volatility will persist as investors assess sectoral earnings, government EV policies, and global demand signals shaping the next phase of India’s electric mobility growth.
