It was co-founded in 2021 by Dev Arora, Anuj Gupta, Harsh Dev Goyal, Jay Gupta, and Manas D. Arora. It lowers carbon footprints and boosts profitability by streamlining financing and offering dependable technology to facilitate the shift to electric mobility for intra-city logistics.
According to ALT Mobility, it leases 10,000 cars to fleet operators and drivers in 20 Indian cities. In order to guarantee low total cost of ownership and maximum fleet uptime, the company provides a comprehensive solution that includes leasing, servicing, charging, real-time fleet monitoring, and data-driven insights.
By launching cutting-edge “drive-to-own” options and leasing programs for cars, light commercial vehicles, and four-wheelers, ALT Mobility intends to broaden its product line to include the driver-cum-owner market. Additionally, it seeks to introduce a Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) model for used automobiles.
