Waaree Energies Limited has announced a strategic investment of Rs 300 crores in its wholly-owned subsidiary, Waaree Energy Storage Solutions Private Limited (WESSPL), marking a significant step towards advancing India’s renewable energy capabilities. The infusion of capital comes through a rights issue involving the allotment of 60 crore partly paid-up equity shares to further WESSPL’s foundational setup of a lithium-ion advanced chemistry storage cell manufacturing plant.

Key Highlights:
- The investment is positioned as a cash consideration through a rights issue priced at par value, with Rs 5 paid on application and Rs 5 payable on call.
- WESSPL, incorporated in February 2020 and based in Mumbai, reported nil turnover for the financial year 2024-25, reflecting its nascent stage focused on infrastructural development.
- This expansion aligns fully with the renewable energy sector, perfectly complementing Waaree Energies’ broader mission to enhance energy storage solutions and meet growing demand for large-scale, advanced battery systems.
- Importantly, this transaction is a related-party deal, as WESSPL remains a wholly owned subsidiary of Waaree Energies, and is executed at arm’s length, ensuring corporate governance norms are adhered to.
- No government or regulatory approvals were required specifically for this capital infusion, and the rights issue does not affect overall shareholding percentages, maintaining Waaree Energies’ full control over WESSPL.

This significant capital allocation signals Waaree Energies’ intent to strengthen its manufacturing footprint in the clean energy domain, especially in energy storage technologies that are crucial for renewable energy adoption and grid stability. With India’s push toward sustainability, this move reflects calculated foresight into the future of energy infrastructure.
