Simple Energy recorded its highest-ever monthly sales in March 2026, selling 1,744 electric two-wheelers across India, according to data from the Vahan portal, the government's vehicle registration database. The figures exclude Telangana, which operates a separate registration system and is routinely omitted from Vahan-based industry tallies.
The March numbers represent a growth of over 128% compared to February 2026. On the back of this performance, Simple Energy moved into ninth place among electric two-wheeler manufacturers in India, displacing e-Sprinto from that position. For a company that has largely operated outside the spotlight dominated by larger players, the ranking marks a notable shift in its market standing.
The Vahan portal, maintained by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, tracks vehicle registrations across states and serves as one of the primary benchmarks for EV sales data in India. Industry analysts and researchers routinely use Vahan figures to assess monthly trends, market share and the relative performance of manufacturers.
The Indian electric two-wheeler segment has expanded considerably over the past three years, driven by a combination of government incentives, rising fuel costs and a broader shift in consumer preference toward cleaner mobility options. Schemes such as the PM E-DRIVE programme have played a role in bringing down the effective cost of electric vehicles for end buyers, widening the addressable market beyond early adopters in metropolitan areas.
Within this landscape, competition has intensified. Established names such as Ola Electric, TVS, Bajaj's Chetak and Ather Energy continue to hold the upper positions in monthly sales charts, while a second tier of manufacturers — including Simple Energy — has been working to consolidate its presence in the market. Simple Energy's move into the top 10 suggests it is gaining ground in this competitive tier.
Simple Energy was founded in 2019 in Bengaluru by Suhas Rajkumar, with Shreshth Mishra as co-founder. The company designs and manufactures electric two-wheelers and develops several key components — including the chassis, battery, motor and software — at its own facilities, positioning itself as a vertically integrated manufacturer. Its vehicles are aimed at buyers who prioritise range, charging speed and day-to-day affordability, a segment that makes up a large share of the urban and semi-urban commuter market in India.
Whether the March figures represent a sustained trend or a one-month spike will likely become clearer as subsequent months of Vahan data are released. For now, the numbers place Simple Energy among the more closely watched smaller manufacturers in the country's growing electric mobility space.
