Electric two-wheeler manufacturer Ultraviolette is establishing a new manufacturing facility in Hosur, Tamil Nadu, with a capacity of 2.5 lakh vehicles per year. The project is anticipated to generate 2,000 jobs. Dubbed the BIGGA (Big Global Ambition) Factory, the plant will bolster Ultraviolette's expansion in India and abroad, producing Ultraviolette's Tesseract electric scooter and other models from its product line, such as Sports, Crossover, Cruiser, Street and Scooters.
The factory can be expanded to handle 500,000 vehicles annually, according to the company. Ultraviolette's co-founder and CEO, Narayan Subramaniam, remarked, "We stand at a pivotal juncture in Ultraviolette's journey. While we have laid a solid foundation built on technology, performance, and product innovation, the upcoming phase is focused on scaling that foundation even further."
He added, "Our existing facility in Bengaluru will continue its regular operations concurrently with the new BIGGA Factory, fortifying our enduring manufacturing and technology presence in India." The Tamil Nadu government will facilitate land allocation for the manufacturing unit at the SIPCOT Industrial Park, Shoolagiri. Designed as a future-ready production center, the BIGGA Factory integrates advanced digital systems, automation, and quality engineering to foster a highly scalable and flexible production setting.
It will incorporate a Manufacturing Execution System for real-time production monitoring, bolstered by digital lean manufacturing and quality systems. Niraj Rajmohan, co-founder and CTO of Ultraviolette, stated, "The BIGGA Factory will enhance our capacity to innovate and aid India's position as a global leader in electric-vehicle technology and manufacturing."
Ultraviolette aims to establish an Indian EV technology and manufacturing sector capable of competing on a global level and extend its superior manufacturing expertise to customers worldwide. Established in 2016 by Narayan Subramaniam and Niraj Rajmohan, the company has attracted investments from global firms including Lingotto, TDK Ventures, Qualcomm Ventures, Zoho Corporation, TVS Motors, and Speciale Invest. Its products are currently accessible in 19 countries.
