In the rapidly evolving landscape of electric mobility, Arth Patel stands out as a trailblazing entrepreneur and a leading voice in India’s electric vehicle (EV) ecosystem. As the CEO and Co-Founder of Tirex Chargers, Arth has positioned himself at the forefront of the country’s green transition, building one of the most promising EV infrastructure companies in India.
An Entrepreneurial Journey Fueled by Vision
Arth entrepreneurial journey began remarkably early. In 2017, at the age of just 17, he founded Tirex Chargers with a singular vision: to enable India’s transition to cleaner, smarter mobility. Armed with a Computer Science degree from the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Arth brought a fresh, global perspective combined with a deep understanding of local market dynamics. His guiding philosophy—“Think Global, Act Local”—has become the cornerstone of Tirex’s growth strategy.
What sets Arth apart is not just his youth, but his lateral thinking and ability to challenge conventional norms in the energy and transportation space. His leadership style merges innovation with action, allowing Tirex to break ground in a traditionally slow-moving industry.
Tirex Chargers: From Startup to Market Leader
Under Arth’s dynamic leadership, Tirex Chargers has quickly scaled to become a key player in India’s EV charging infrastructure segment. Today, Tirex is recognized as a leading Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) specializing in DC fast chargers for electric vehicles, with a strong focus on quality, reliability, and precision engineering.
The company’s rise has been bolstered by strategic partnerships, most notably a significant investment from Gulf Oil, a global lubricant major under the $50 billion Hinduja Group. This collaboration has not only fortified Tirex’s financial and operational capabilities but also provided a strong bridge to leading automotive manufacturers and diversified geographies.
Tirex’s footprint today spans across India with over 1,200+ charge points deployed, servicing more than 2,000 commercial vehicles and 1,300+ passenger vehicles daily. The company holds a 10% market share in the EV charging segment and a 25% share in the non-PSU market, underscoring its dominance in private sector deployments.
With 25+ charging hubs nationwide and long-term partnerships with Heavy Commercial Vehicle (HCV) OEMs, Tirex is playing a vital role in supporting electric logistics and transport solutions at scale.
Driving Innovation Through Deep Technical Expertise
Tirex’s competitive edge lies in its robust R&D foundation. The company boasts a team with over 300 years of combined experience drawn from sectors like power electronics, defense, and aviation. This multidisciplinary expertise has enabled the company to develop chargers that meet the highest global standards while maintaining cost-effectiveness for Indian markets.
Tirex is not merely manufacturing hardware—it is redefining the standards of EV engineering in India, setting benchmarks that others now aspire to follow.
Arth Patel: A Thought Leader in the EV Space
Beyond his role as CEO, Arth is a prominent thought leader and influencer in the EV sector. He is frequently invited to speak at high-level industry forums, where he shares insights on the future of mobility, sustainable infrastructure, and innovation ecosystems. His thought leadership has been featured across platforms including Forbes, ET Auto, Entrepreneurs India, Keysight, EV Reporter, Franchise India, NHEV, and eMobility+.
These engagements not only highlight his deep understanding of EV market trends and challenges but also reflect his commitment to shaping public discourse around clean energy adoption and electric infrastructure. Arth’s ability to articulate complex ideas with clarity and purpose has made him an inspiration for young entrepreneurs and future innovators.
Sustainability With Scale
At the heart of Arth’s mission is a deep commitment to environmental responsibility. For him, building Tirex is not just about capturing market share—it's about creating meaningful, scalable solutions that reduce carbon footprints and promote energy independence.
This commitment is evident in every aspect of Tirex’s operations—from product development and site deployment to service management and client support. Each Tirex charger is designed with longevity, energy efficiency, and user convenience in mind. The company is now actively exploring partnerships and product lines that will further enhance India’s EV readiness and support the transition to net-zero mobility.
Looking Ahead: Scaling the Future
As India accelerates its push toward EV adoption, Arth and Tirex Chargers are well-positioned to lead the next phase of growth. With a proven track record, trusted partnerships, and a relentless drive for innovation, Tirex is set to expand its influence across South Asia and beyond.
In Arth Patel, India has found more than just a successful startup founder—it has discovered a transformational leader. His journey is a compelling testament to how youthful ambition, strategic vision, and a commitment to sustainability can converge to create lasting impact.
As Tirex continues to scale, the legacy Arth is building will likely define India’s electric mobility journey for years to come—one charge at a time.
