TVS Motor Company announced a strategic restructuring of its European operations through the merger of three of its Swiss-based subsidiaries with Swiss E-Mobility Group (Holding) AG (SEMG Holding). The move is aimed at simplifying the group structure, driving operational synergies, and optimizing costs across its international electric mobility portfolio.
The subsidiaries involved in the merger are Swiss E-Mobility Group (Schweiz) AG (SEMG CH), Alexand'Ro Edouard'O Passion Velo Sàrl (Passion Velo), and The GO Corporation (Go AG). These companies ceased to exist as separate entities as of June 30, 2025, and have been fully merged into SEMG Holding, a wholly owned subsidiary of TVS Motor (Singapore) Pte Ltd, which is itself a 100% subsidiary of TVS Motor Company.
According to the company, all three firms were previously engaged in the e-bike and e-cargo bike business across Switzerland and parts of Germany. SEMG CH and Passion Velo focused on the Swiss market, with Passion Velo catering specifically to the French-speaking region. Go AG, a Swiss technology company, was also active in Germany and offered smart connected mobility solutions through its e-bike offerings.
The merger, which follows compliance with Swiss regulatory procedures, involves no cash consideration or share exchange as it was executed among wholly owned or step-down subsidiaries of TVS Motor. The company clarified that while this qualifies as a related party transaction under SEBI regulations, TVS Motor Company itself was not a direct party to the merger.
TVS Motor stated that the decision to consolidate was driven by multiple factors: simplification of the group’s legal and compliance framework, improved operational efficiency, better funding integration from the parent entity, and overall cost optimisation. The combined turnover of the merged entities during calendar year 2024 stood at ₹550 crore.
The company emphasized that there will be no change in the shareholding pattern of TVS Motor Company as a result of this merger.
This development is part of TVS Motor’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its presence in the European electric mobility market and enhance the efficiency of its overseas operations.
