Exide Industries plans additional investment in its lithium-ion manufacturing capacity in Bengaluru. Multiple reports say the company will invest about ₹1,400 crore for the phase-1 lithium-ion cell plant, with the investment slated for FY27. One report also cites a larger planned outlay of around ₹3,000 crore for the lithium-ion plant overall, indicating that phase 1 is part of a broader expansion.

The Bengaluru facility is expected to begin commercial operations later in the year, with one source stating that revenue generation is targeted to start from the third quarter. The reports do not provide additional details on the plant’s production timeline beyond the expected revenue commencement, nor do they specify capacity, funding structure, or customer partnerships. The coverage remains focused on investment value, location, the phase-1 scope, and the expected timing for revenue.
