@GourabPaul assisted by @SushmitaPanigrahi our in-house EV Domain Experts (guided towards Actionables Roadmap very ably by @nirvana_laha) worked very hard to create this EV Domain Deep Dive Presentation that has enough meat, and something for everyone 
. It’s a good starting doc and work-in-progress!
EV_Ecosystem_ValuePickr_Conference_April_2023.pdf (3.8 MB)
Again one of the most well-appreciated presentations in the Conference. Sorry about the delays from my side, was travelling. For those who get distracted by the mere mention of Deep Dives, you can dive straight away to Actionables Slides - 35, 60, 66-70
We have a EV Working Group going, and the group has exciting plans to get to/stay on top of this domain in a structured manner - they will share the plans, shortly. Those who like to dive deep, here’s a practical treasure trove – you know where to head to!
Meanwhile, if you like the enclosed presentation, please don’t be shy of showing our appreciation for the wonderful efforts demonstrated by this years Newcomers/Domain Experts - we have a good thing going!. Not on this post - but in the subsequent posts that will follow. Thanks.
PS: Also a call-out to other VP Members who are working in the Auto/Ancillary/EV domains. Here’s your chance to raise your hand and be counted in – what is going to be a very rewarding collaborative effort in the years to come.

Thank you @Donald da for the introduction. The topic (and the pdf) is still a work in progress as the industry is transitioning and there are many moving elements here.
The focus of the presentation was
- Which components will not change much. ( e.g. shunts, capacitors)
- Where can the companies generate economies of scale. (battery components - electrolyte, anode, cathode)
- How are the supply chain dynamics changing across the Auto and EV domain. (OEM opening cost centers)
- Discovering some actionable ideas. ( Charging infrastructure , components for motors etc.)
What @nirvana_laha , @SushmitaPanigrahi and me would do next is to deep dive into each sub-segment and identify the major players / technologies.
There are also great threads across VP connecting the EV transition (like Shivalik Bimetal Controls Stock Story or Gujarat Fluorochemicals: A hidden fluorine story). We would like this thread to become a go to map for all the topic.

wow, what a work man. This seems to be a work of maestro. Thanks for sharing this.
I would like to share some segments, where we can find some opportunities. Segments like BMS( Battery management system) which is currently growing at 19.5%. The Chinese giant CATL dominates this segment globally with big clientele. Although shift in China+1 can help some of the Indian businesses too. Endurance technology is one of the companies who entered into this segment with acquisition of Maxwell BMS. It would be very helpful if you look into this BMS segment.

Amazing article. What will be the effect on EV 2W sales if and when the FAME subsidy is withdrawn. Is that the reason why big OEMs are not diving into EV 2W fully fledged.

Excellent presentation… Thanks @SushmitaPanigrahi, @GourabPaul, @nirvana_laha…
Recently I watched an interview by Ford CEO… Where he talks about difference between ICE and EV eco system… And how legacy automakers are adopting to the same…
One point that cought my attention is where he talks about importance of software in EV and there is a Fundamental shift in the way EV will be produced by Ford in future.
Basically OEM in ICE vehicles are Assemblers… They take different companents from 100 of companies and assemble… This makes perfect sense in ICE vehicles as each component is mechanical part and they won’t talk to each other…
Contrary to this in EV Architecture, there will be software in most parts of the car and they needs to communicate with each other.
Assembling components from different ancillary companies is not feasible and complete EV architecture in future Ford models will be insourced.
If this is the way OEMs will go then what it means for auto ancillary companies…
