Market Overview : The Indian Electric Vehicle Market was worth USD 5 billion in 2020, and it is predicted to grow to USD 47 billion by 2026, with a CAGR of more than 44% over the forecast period (2021-2026). The COVID-19 epidemic has had an influence on the Indian electric vehicle market, causing supply chain disruptions and the closure of manufacturing units as a result of ongoing lockdowns and travel restrictions across the country. In India, however, the electric vehicle (EV) sector is still in its infancy. Due to several government programmes and policies, it is predicted to expand at a considerably quicker rate during the forecast period. To lower their carbon footprint, e-commerce companies (such as Amazon) are starting programmes to deploy e-Mobility for last-mile delivery. India is experimenting with e-Mobility for public transportation, and electric intercity buses have been deployed in several major cities. Furthermore, state governments are actively involved in the implementation of legislation that encourage the use of electric vehicles. As an example, • Kerala wants to have one million electric vehicles on the road by 2022 and 6,000 electric buses in service by 2025. • Telangana wants to attain EV sales objectives of 80 percent 2- and 3-wheelers (motorcycles, scooters, auto-rickshaws), 70 percent commercial automobiles (such as Ola and Uber), 40 percent buses, 30 percent private cars, and 15% electrification of all vehicles by 2025. Moreover, following the launch of the FAME India plan, which aims to transition toward e-mobility in the light of expanding international policy commitments and environmental difficulties, the EV market in India has gained substantial traction. Furthermore, India has the world's largest untapped market, particularly for electric two-wheelers. The automatic route market is likely to gain traction throughout the forecast period due to the fact that 100 percent foreign direct investment is permitted in this sector.Solution
