Revoh Innovations -Localising EV transition

It is not always when four friends join together, they party. At times, they start companies that operate in niche technologies serving upcoming sectors. Established in 2017, Revoh has quickly emerged as a frontrunner in the electric vehicle (EV) industry, specialising in the design and manufacturing of high-efficiency BLDC motor controllers.

Revoh’s journey is one of enduring friendship and shared dreams. The company was founded by four college friends, each bringing unique skills and experiences to the table. Vignesh Durai, the CEO, combines vision and tenacity honed through years of experience in electronics and communication engineering. As the COO, Vimal Raj ensures smooth execution of ambitious plans, drawing on his expertise in operational excellence. Nihaludeen, the CTO, spearheads technical innovation with a keen eye for problem-solving, while Balaji, the CAO, brings strategic thinking and financial acumen to the team.

What started as a venture into the hoverboard market soon evolved into a quest to develop noiseless BLDC motor controllers. The team found the extensive use of the motor in the EV industry. Until then the component was being imported from China at a much lower cost. While Revoh couldn’t compete on the cost, they were confident of offering a superior product. After lot of field studies, they fine-tuned their offering to Indian requirements. In 2019, Revoh officially incorporated as Revoh Innovations Pvt. Ltd., marking the beginning of its journey to revolutionise the EV industry in India. These controllers boast features such as auto-phase detection, adjustable speed limits, anti-theft alarms and versatile forward/reverse functions, setting new benchmarks in the industry. With power outputs ranging from 250 watts to 3.5 kilowatts, Revoh’s products epitomise excellence and reliability, proudly adorned with the “Made in India” seal.

Setting New Standards with Innovative Products
The USD 150,000 in seed funding and an additional USD 425,000 in the second round, showcases robust investor belief in Revoh’s vision and pioneering methods. These funds have played a pivotal role in propelling expansion and facilitating the localisation of electric vehicle sub-component manufacturing in the country.

With an IP67 rating, Revoh’s controllers are built to endure any environment, ensuring reliability and durability for a wide range of applications. The products seamlessly integrate with the Controller Area Network (CANBUS), allowing control over speed, direction, and riding modes. It is also fully customisable via a user-friendly Bluetooth app, offering users the flexibility to tailor their EV experience. From e-scooters to electric rickshaws and commercial vehicles, Revoh’s products cater to the evolving needs of the EV market, empowering OEMs to deliver cutting-edge solutions to their customers.

A Vision for the Future
In the next five years, the company plans to expand its product portfolio, enhance technological capabilities and scale operations both domestically and internationally. By investing in research and development, forming strategic partnerships and enhancing customer support infrastructure, Revoh aims to solidify its position as a leading player in the EV market.

Their vision extends beyond financial growth to contributing to the global transition towards sustainable transportation.
