Delhi launches EV policy with ₹15,000 crore investment target and purchase incentives by 2030
By Eve
The Delhi government's new Electric Vehicle Policy, effective from 1 July, aims to attract ₹15,000 crore in investments over four years and transform the capital's transport system by 31 March 2030. Purchase incentives include full road tax and registration waivers for electric cars under ₹30 lakh, subsidies up to ₹30,000 for two wheelers in year one, up to ₹50,000 for electric auto rickshaws, and up to ₹1 lakh for electric light commercial trucks. E-trucks will also receive a 10 year exemption from Delhi's No Entry restrictions to support urban logistics.
Why it matters: The policy's phased incentives and commercial vehicle exemptions signal sustained demand for charging infrastructure across passenger, last mile and freight segments in India's capital. The ₹15,000 crore investment pipeline and 2030 transition timeline create a clear planning horizon for charge point operators and equipment suppliers targeting the Delhi market.
