The Mohali Consumer Commission has directed Ola Electric to either repair defective scooters sold to customers or return the full purchase amount with interest.
The Mohali Consumer Commission issued a strict directive to Ola Electric after receiving complaints about malfunctioning scooters. The commission stipulated that the company must either repair the defective units at no cost to the owners or refund the entire purchase price along with applicable interest.
The order follows a series of consumer grievances filed in the region, alleging that the scooters failed to meet performance expectations and required frequent repairs. The commission gave Ola Electric a specific timeframe to comply, emphasizing consumer protection under Indian law.
Failure to adhere to the directive could result in further legal action, including penalties or enforcement measures. Ola Electric has not yet publicly responded to the commission's ruling, and consumers await clarification on the next steps.
The decision underscores the growing scrutiny of electric vehicle manufacturers as the market expands, highlighting the importance of quality assurance and after‑sales service for emerging technologies in India.
