Ultraviolette Automotive is set to raise over ₹500 crore from new and existing investors, including Yali Capital, Speciale Invest, and TDK Ventures, as part of its ongoing funding round, according to livemint.com. The capital infusion aims to support the company’s expansion plans in manufacturing and product development.

The funding round involves a mix of fresh investments and follow-on funding from Ultraviolette’s current backers.
