  • FAAD Network gauges the vision of an early-stage venture and helps them achieve exceptional results. With Battery Smart, FAAD drew approximately 370% IRR in the investment tenure.
  • The initial investment was made in 2020 when Battery Smart was operational at only one store with a handful of customers. Currently, the startup is operational in 30 cities and 1000+ stations.

Gurgaon (Haryana), June 24, 2024: FAAD Network, a SEBI-registered Category 1 Angel Fund headquartered in Gurgaon, is thrilled to announce its strategic exit from Battery Smart, delivering an extraordinary 61x return on investment. This exit, achieved just 45 months after the initial investment, highlights FAAD Network’s exceptional investment strategy and timing.

The startup provides advanced lithium batteries to e-vehicles on a membership basis.

The exit from Battery Smart was a key move, enabling FAAD Network’s founders and other investors to enjoy significant financial gains, approximately 370% IRR in the investment tenure.
