Cellestial E-Mobility an electric tractor start-up Acquired by Murugappa Group

Murugappa Group acquired the remaining 30.04% stake for Rs 50.90 crore. Before that, the company held a 69.96% stake in electric tractor start-up Cellestial E-Mobility. 

Now, TI Cellestial E-Mobility, completely owned by the Murugappa Groups of India (TII), acquired the whole shareholding of Cellestial E-Mobility Pvt Ltd. A new business took part in developing and designing the eclectic tractor. 

TII said in an interview that it would use initial investment into the new auxiliary for clean mobility to the tune of Rs 350 crore through a combination of value, inclination, and debt instruments.

The Co-founders of Cellestial, Siddhartha Durairajan and Syed Mubasheer Ali, said: "Cellestial is well positioned to achieve its full potential and acquire the balance shareholding in Cellestial by TICMPL will accelerate the same."

TI Cycles of India (TII) announced its debut into the last-mile commuting, last-mile delivery, and personal mobility vehicle segments of the electric vehicle industry in December 2021 using its current Montra brand.
