It has turned into a stage where the company signals its next moves — from products and platforms to software upgrades that shape the ownership experience. In 2023, it was an extended battery warranty and a major OS refresh. Last year, Ather rolled out the family-friendly Rizta, its smart Halo helmet and the AtherStack 6.0 upgrade.

The company is expected to announce this update during Community Day. This will place Ather alongside competitors like Ola Electric, which introduced a similar feature two years back.
