Axis Bank has extended a loan of INR 100 Cr ($12.1 Mn) to Everest Fleet for four years along with GuarantCo, a local-currency credit solution company, part of the Private Infrastructure Development Group (PIDG) as its guarantor. “From the outset, Everest Fleet prioritised unit economics, ensuring profitability from day one. Even as market dynamics shifted and incentives evolved, our robust operational model and economies of scale allowed for continued growth and resilience,” said Ladsariya.
Founded in 2016 by Siddharth Ladsariya, Everest Fleet will utilise the funds to add more electric vehicles (EVs) to its fleet. As a part of this transaction, GuarantCo has given its guarantee for two-thirds of the loan credited from Axis Bank to Everest Fleet.
