Under the expansion plan, the company will add 100 employees in Hisar, 50 employees in Bhubaneswar, and 100 employees in Coimbatore. Notably, the Coimbatore facility, which is the company’s recent set up, will account for a significant portion of the upcoming hiring as it is prepared for commissioning and scale-up.

In addition, the electric vehicle maker is expanding its service and after-sales capabilities to align with its growing dealer network and customer base.

Commenting on the development, Divyanshu Agarwal, CEO at Zelio E-Mobility, said, “Since the beginning, Zelio has always been a people-first company. We work with and in favor of our people. Wherever we enter, whether a state or a city, our focus is to create meaningful job opportunities and contribute to local employment. As we scale, this commitment remains at the core of everything we do. Our expansion is not only focused on manufacturing growth but also on building strong local ecosystems in each region we operate in, ensuring long-term value creation through employment and skill development.”

The hiring announcement follows a strong FY2025–26 for Zelio E-Mobility, with revenue rising 81.8 percent year-on-year to ₹313.68 crore from ₹172.19 crore in FY25. The company has remained profitable since inception and delivered an approximate revenue CAGR of 121 percent over the last four years.
