Ergon Labs and Omega Seiki Pvt. Ltd. form strategic partnership to introduce IPC Technology

As part of the collaboration, Omega Seiki Pvt. Ltd. has placed a ₹50 crore order for Ergon’s IPC technology to power its upcoming vehicle variants. The IPC, a groundbreaking component that combines the on-board charger and motor controller into a single compact unit, offers exceptional performance, reliability, and charging convenience for electric three-wheelers.

Ergon Labs, a rising innovator in light EV powertrain technologies, has partnered with Omega Seiki Pvt. Ltd. (OSPL), one of India’s rapidly expanding electric vehicle manufacturers, to introduce Integrated Power Converter (IPC) technology. Through this strategic collaboration, OSPL will become the first original equipment manufacturer (OEM) to incorporate Ergon’s advanced IPC into its electric three-wheelers, beginning with the L5 segment. To further strengthen their partnership, Omega Seiki Pvt. Ltd. has placed an order of ₹50 crore for Ergon’s IPC technology, which will be used to power its upcoming vehicle variants.

The IPC, a ground-breaking component that combines the on-board charger and motor controller into a single compact unit, delivers unprecedented performance, reliability, and charging convenience for electric three-wheelers. The partnership also includes a strategic investment by Mr. Uday Narang, Founder and Chairman of Omega Seiki Pvt. Ltd., in Ergon Labs. As part of the agreement, Mr. Narang will join Ergon’s advisory board.

Ergon’s IPC technology offers several industry-first advantages for vehicle operators and fleet owners, including 30% better gradeability, 50% faster charging (adding over 50 km of range in under an hour), and 30% lower system costs compared to traditional setups. It also reduces wiring complexity and boosts vehicle efficiency. After extensive on-road testing over 50,000 km, full certification is expected within the next month.

Strategic Roadmap and Market Impact

The first commercial deployment of 2,000 units is planned across India in FY26, starting with the L5 Passenger segment — a rapidly growing market fuelled by aggregators like Rapido, Ola, and Uber, and increasing adoption in metro cities and regional centres. Omega Seiki Pvt. Ltd’s ₹50 crore order for Ergon’s IPC technology underlines the strong market confidence in this integrated powertrain solution and positions both companies to meet rising demands for higher performance, greater reliability, and lower total cost of ownership in the EV three-wheeler space.

The companies are also jointly developing a high-performance L5 Cargo electric vehicle capable of handling over 500 kg payload with a best-in-class 30% gradeability, targeting diesel vehicle replacement in markets such as Kerala and the North East.

A Shared Vision for the Future

“This partnership with Omega Seiki is a pivotal milestone in Ergon’s mission to bring breakthrough innovations in light EV powertrains to market,” said Ashwin Ramanujam, CEO of Ergon Labs. “OSM’s vehicles will see meaningful improvements in gradeability, payload capacity, and charging reliability — all enabled by deep component integration at both hardware and software levels. This moment represents the culmination of three years of relentless product development by our engineering team. More importantly, it sets the stage for our next major innovation: one-hour home charging for two-wheelers, launching in 2026.”

Mr. Uday Narang, Founder and Chairman, Omega Seiki Pvt. Ltd. added, “After over three decades of bold investments across global financial markets, I returned to India with a mission to drive environmental and economic impact through engineering-led innovation. Omega Seiki Pvt. Ltd. was born out of that vision. My investment in Ergon is a continuation of this commitment. From my first conversation with Ashwin to witnessing their technology’s performance first-hand, it was clear that Ergon brings world-class engineering to India’s EV ecosystem. I’m excited to partner with this exceptional team and bring their breakthrough product to market.”
