JBM Auto takes 24 per cent of India electric bus market in FY26 with 1,282 units registered

JBM Auto Limited captured over 24 per cent of India's electric bus market in FY26, registering 1,282 units deployed across Telangana, Delhi, Maharashtra, Gujarat and Assam, according to industry data. The manufacturer also held approximately 79 per cent of the electric tarmac bus segment and more than half of the intercity electric luxury coach market during the year. JBM Auto reported an order pipeline exceeding 10,000 electric buses, reflecting strong demand as states expand public transport electrification and private operators adopt cleaner mobility solutions.
Why it matters: The figures confirm JBM Auto as the dominant supplier in India's growing electric bus procurement market, with a substantial backlog signalling sustained fleet electrification by state transport authorities and private operators. Competing OEMs and charging infrastructure providers will need to track JBM's deployment footprint across multiple states to align depot charging and corridor infrastructure planning.
