Ola Electric shares climb nearly 14%; what should investors watch now?

What experts say on Ola Electric's stock

Kranthi Bathini, Director of Equity Strategy at WealthMills Securities, said, "The stock is witnessing some buying at lower levels amid elevated crude oil prices and the EV firm's ongoing rights issue. The counter is suitable for investors with a high-risk appetite. More importantly, investors should watch the company's earnings performance and revenue in the coming quarters, as these will remain crucial for the stock's future performance."

Ravi Singh, Chief Research Officer at Master Capital Services, noted, "Ola Electric reported Q1 FY27 revenue of Rs 455 crore but continues to face losses, raising concerns about its path to profitability. Despite the stock's strong rebound today, investors should remain cautious and avoid fresh positions. Existing shareholders may consider using the current rally as an exit opportunity."

From a technical standpoint, AR Ramachandran, Sebi-registered research analyst at Tips2trades, said, "Ola Electric's stock is bullish on daily charts with strong support at Rs 29.82. A daily close above the resistance of Rs 33 could lead to further upside towards Rs 36.2 in the near term."
