AI Summary
India’s electric‑vehicle market has accelerated, with cumulative EV registrations reaching 10.21 million out of more than 449 million vehicles and EVs accounting for 8.25 percent of new sales in the fiscal year ending March 2026, up from 7.48 percent the prior year. The rise is linked to targeted government policies, including the PM Electric Drive Revolution (PM E‑DRIVE) scheme, a Production‑Linked Incentive for automobile manufacturing, and a Production‑Linked Incentive for Advanced Chemistry Cell battery storage that lowers costs and reduces investment risk for manufacturers and buyers. The authors suggest that other nations can adopt these same policy tools to support their own EV transitions.
