Okinawa Autotech is setting up a plant to manufacture motors and controls for its scooters at its upcoming 5-lakh units per annum plant at Alwar in Rajasthan which is scheduled for commissioning late next month or early June. Surprisingly, leading electric two-wheeler makers are on a massive expansion spree despite the abysmal volumes and low capacity utilization. For instance, Gurugram-based Okinawa that leads the EV scooters space, closely followed by Hero Electric from HeroMoto Corp, is adding almost six-times more capacity and so is the Hosur-based Ather Energy , in spite of the fact that they are using only one-third of their capacity now. Ampere and Ather come at distant third and fourth slot when it comes to volumes. The move makes Okinawa the first electric two-wheeler maker to have own assembly line for motors and controls, the two key components in an EV after the battery, which it is already manufacturing at its Bhiwadi plant, said Jeetender Sharma , founder … [Read more...] about E-scooter maker Okinawa Autotech investing Rs 70 cr in components unit at Raj plant

Mumbai: Increased demand for technology talent, following an accelerated focus on digital adoption by businesses due to the Covid-19 pandemic, is making hiring expensive, especially for early-stage startups , multiple founders and recruiters told ET. Engineers, data analysts , developers and product managers in the three-to-seven-year experience bracket are often being hired for up to 50% higher salaries than industry levels by startups flush with investor capital. Founders and investors say the current “hiring bubble” is reminiscent of 2014-2015 when the funding boom inflated salaries—the first time for the Indian startup ecosystem—on the back of massive funding that the likes of homegrown e-commerce company Flipkart received. At the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, companies had to retrench staff, but as the wheels of the economy picked up pace and the adoption of technology accelerated, funds flowed into startups in the fintech, Software as a Service (SaaS), edtech … [Read more...] about Salaries at these startups boomed among coronavirus

V Ramgopal Rao, director at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Delhi, is involved in two startups. One is trying to make an explosive detection kit on a chip. The other is building sensors for agricultural applications. Both these require VLSI (very large-scale integration) talent. VLSI is the process of creating an integrated circuit (IC) by combining millions of transistors onto a single chip. Different applications often require different kinds of chips. Off-the-shelf chips may not be good enough, or may be too expensive. Rao is trying to bring down the cost by creating unique chip designs. But VLSI talent is too expensive in India. “I cannot afford my own PhD students,” Rao said at the Times Techies Webinar last week. The students’ salary as soon as they graduate, Rao said, is almost half of his. “In five years they would be earning much more than what I would be making. So just imagine the condition of startups. They have a huge requirement of VLSI implementation and they … [Read more...] about Why India needs a lot more talent that can craft chips
