FOREWORD
New Delhi -110 001
India stands at the cusp of a transformative mobility revolution. The global
momentum towards sustainable transportation presents a timely and compelling
opportunity for our nation to leapfrog conventional trajectories and position itself as a
front
.
runner in clean, connected, and shared qiobility solutions. At the forefront of this
trarjsition lies electric mobility-a vital enabler for advancing our energy security,
1
climate commitments, and industrial aspirations.
The Government of India has taken bold and strategic measures to accelerate the
adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), deploying targeted policy interventions, financial
incentives, and mission-driven initiatives. Programmes such as the Faster Adoption
and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric Vehicles (FAME) Scheme, the Production
Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for Advanced Chemistry Cells, and concerted efforts
to localise battery manufacturing underscore our resolve to build a robust and future
ready transport ecosystem. Encouragingly, several Indian states have emerged as
trailblazers, crafting forward-looking EV policies, investing in charging infrastructure,
and fostering innovation and investment at the local level. This growing synergy
between central and state-level action is essential to the creation of a coherent and
scalable EV ecosystem.
The India Electric Mobility Index (IEMI) is a pioneering initiative designed to bolster
electrification efforts at the sub-national level. By evaluating the progress of electric
mobility across states and union territories, the IEMI captures the richness of state
level strategies and the strength of regional ambition. It serves as a valuable tool for
policymakers, providing insights that can inform targeted action and drive
col!aborative progress.
I extend my sincere appreciation to the Electric Mobility team at NITI Aayog and the
World Resources Institute (WRI). for their vision, diligence, and partnership in
developing this important dashboard and its robust methodology. We look forward to
working closely with states to harness the insights of the IEMI and accelerate India's
journey towards a cleaner and more sustainable transport future.

XIX INTRODUCTION
1 Rising vehicle ownership in India has significantly intensified the environmental burden
posed by the transport sector. With over 310 million vehicle registrations in the past
15 years
1
, the transport sector accounts for about 12% of India’s energy-related carbon
dioxide emissions, with road transport responsible for over 92% of these emissions
2
.
Moreover, the sector is a major contributor to air pollution, accounting for 20-30% of the
urban air pollution in Indian cities
2
, predominantly from road transport. The combustion
of fossil fuels in vehicles releases significant quantities of particulate matter (PM2.5 and
PM10), nitrogen oxides and other pollutants, severely deteriorating urban air quality and
adversely impacting public health. Addressing these issues requires a shift toward cleaner
transport solutions. These include vehicle electrification, improvement of public transit,
and the enforcement of stricter emissions regulations.
At the same time, India’s automotive manufacturing sector is a cornerstone of its
economy, contributing approximately 7.1% to the national gross domestic product (GDP)
and accounting for 49% of the country’s manufacturing GDP
3
. India is the second-largest
manufacturer of two-wheelers (2W), largest manufacturer of three-wheelers (3W) and
third-largest manufacturer of passenger cars (four-wheelers [4Ws]) in the world
4
. It is
also ranked as the third-largest automobile market globally in terms of sales
5
. The sector
employs around 19 million people directly or indirectly and plays a vital role in job creation
6

Electric mobility (e-mobility) plays a crucial role in decarbonising India’s transport sector.
By shifting from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs),
India can significantly reduce its dependence on fossil fuels and cut urban air pollution,
especially in rapidly growing cities. With rising concerns over climate change, energy
security and public health, clean mobility is increasingly seen as a ‘sunrise sector’—one
with immense potential for innovation, investment and job creation. Government policies
such as the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid &) Electric Vehicles in India
(FAME) scheme, production-linked incentives for advanced chemistry cells and state-
level EV policies underscore the strategic importance of clean mobility. As battery costs
decline and charging infrastructure expands, the e-mobility sector is expected to catalyse India Electric Mobility Index 2024 | Tracking Electric Mobility Trends in Indian States
2 economic growth while advancing India’s commitment to achieve net-zero emissions by
2070 and meets its Paris Agreement targets of reducing emissions intensity by 45% and
achieving 50% electric power capacity from non-fossil sources by 2030
7
.
With the notifications for the PM Electric Drive Revolution in Innovative Vehicle Enhancement
(PM e-DRIVE) scheme (2024) and for the Scheme to Promote Manufacturing of Electric
Passenger Cars (2024) in India, India continues to demonstrate its commitment to the
e-mobility transition. However, an accelerated transition that enables rapid decarbonisation
gains and helps India enhance its competitiveness in the automotive sector requires cross-
sectoral partnerships with active participation of the subnational governments.
As of 1 June 2025, 29 states and union territories (UTs) have notified their EV policies,
and another four states have draft policies under consideration. Supporting the effective
design of state EV policies and enabling impactful state-level action for e-mobility can
significantly improve EV adoption. This, in turn, can accelerate the development of a
domestic manufacturing industry for EVs and EV components, reducing the country’s
reliance on imports and positioning India as a global hub for EV manufacturing.
This report presents the rationale, approach and methodology for the India Electric
Mobility Index (IEMI), a tool to support states in achieving a robust and effective e-mobility
transition. The IEMI assesses performance of the 28 states and 8 union territories in their
ambition and progress in accelerating the e-mobility transition. The index will provide
a comparative and ongoing evaluation of e-mobility development in Indian states, that
identifies key enablers leading to effective outcomes. This will allow states to engage in
peer learning and deploy policy and regulatory interventions with demonstrated impact
and will also enable more private sector investments based on states’ performance and
potential for future growth.

Introduction INDIA'S
E-MOBILITY ECOSYSTEM
2 India’s e-mobility sector has undergone a significant transformation over the past decade.
Once accounting for just 0.5% of total vehicle sales in 2018, EVs rose to 7.7% of new vehicle
sales in 2024, with over 6.5 million EVs operating on Indian roads as on June 2025. This
growth has been fuelled by a combination of policy incentives, private sector investment
and consumer demand for cleaner and more affordable mobility. In calendar year 2024
alone, EV sales grew by 27% year-on-year to reach 2.03 million units, with 2Ws continuing
to dominate the market at 59% of total EV sales
1
. The growing market share reflects the
increasing acceptance of e-mobility, especially in urban and peri-urban transport.

Government-led initiatives have played a central role in accelerating this transition. The
FAME-II scheme, launched in 2019, has been instrumental in supporting demand incentives
for electric 2Ws (e-2Ws), electric 3Ws (e-3Ws) and electric 4Ws (e-4Ws), particularly
for commercial use. FAME-II has also provided funding for charging infrastructure and
electric buses (e-buses) for public transport. Building on this, the recently launched
PM e-DRIVE scheme further reinforces the government’s long-term commitment to
e-mobility. With continued support for e-2Ws, e-3Ws, e-buses and charging infrastructure,
and by introducing purchase incentives for segments such as electric trucks and electric
ambulances, the scheme aims to accelerate EV adoption across all road transport vehicles.
India is a signatory to the global EV30@30 campaign under the Clean Energy Ministerial,
an international forum that promotes policies and programs to advance clean energy.
Accordingly, it is committed to achieving 30% EV penetration in new vehicle sales by 2030.
However, achieving this target will require not only ambitious policies but also coordinated
efforts to address persistent structural challenges in the ecosystem.
Charging infrastructure is one of the most critical enablers of EV adoption. As of October
2024, India had 25,000 public EV charging stations, with Karnataka leading in installations,
followed by Maharashtra and Delhi
8
. While this marks significant progress, the availability
and density of charging stations presents opportunities across states and urban-rural
geographies. Fast-charging options, which are vital for long-haul and commercial fleets,
5
India's E-Mobility Ecosystem are still limited. Planned charging networks, enhanced grid integration, standardised
charging technologies, and streamlined payment systems present key opportunities to
improve user experience and support the scalable growth of e-mobility.
Manufacturing capacity has expanded with the support of initiatives such as the Production
Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for Automobile and Auto Components, Production Linked
Incentive for National Programme on Advanced Chemistry Cells and Battery Storage,
Scheme to Promote Manufacturing of Electric Passenger Cars in India and the Phased
Manufacturing Programme under the PM e-DRIVE scheme. Moreover, India has seen
increased investment in vehicle assembly, battery manufacturing and localisation of key
parts such as motors and controllers. Nevertheless, the country needs to address issues on
imports for lithium-ion cells and other critical raw materials, exposing the sector to global
supply chain risks. In addition to the ongoing domestic mining and mineral processing
efforts there is a need for long-term strategies to ensure material recycling, innovation in
battery technologies and secure access to raw materials. According to a NITI Aayog–Green
Growth Equity Fund report, India’s cumulative lithium-ion battery stock is projected to
reach 600  GWh by 2030, generating 128 GWh of recyclable battery volume. Strengthening
material recovery systems, local recycling infrastructure, and battery innovation will help
India reduce reliance on imports, enhance supply chain resilience, and support sustainable
growth in its EV ecosystem.
State governments have emerged as important actors in India’s e-mobility push. Many
states have released dedicated EV policies that offer demand-side incentives, support for
manufacturing and subsidies for charging infrastructure. Delhi has made notable progress
in promoting e-2Ws and e-3Ws, while Tamil Nadu and Karnataka have attracted substantial
investments in EV manufacturing. While significant progress has been made, there are
opportunities to strengthen policy implementation by ensuring longer tenures of state EV
policies, enhancing coordination with electricity distribution companies, and streamlining
institutional mechanisms. Strengthening state-level governance, aligning transport and
energy planning, and ensuring consistency in incentive structures will be essential for a
more integrated EV ecosystem.
India’s e-mobility transition also presents unique opportunities. The large and growing
domestic vehicle market provides a favourable environment for developing scalable, low-
cost EV solutions suited to the Global South. Greater electrification of public transport,
freight and delivery services, combined with digital platforms for fleet and energy
management, could yield substantial economic and environmental benefits. Financing
mechanisms such as leasing models, battery-as-a-service and green credit instruments
can help overcome affordability barriers, particularly for small businesses and lower-
income consumers. Expanding domestic research and development (R&D) and skilling
ecosystems will also be critical for enhancing industrial competitiveness and ensuring a
just and inclusive transition.
While India’s EV journey is still progressing, the convergence of ambitious national
schemes such as FAME-II and PM e-DRIVE, supportive state action and a growing market
appetite positions the country to play a leading role in the global shift toward e-mobility.
Addressing infrastructure gaps, reducing import dependencies and ensuring long-term
policy consistency will be key to sustaining this momentum and achieving India’s climate
and development goals.India Electric Mobility Index 2024 | Tracking Electric Mobility Trends in Indian States
6 IMPORTANCE OF
STATE ACTION
3 States play an important role in India’s transition to e-mobility. They govern critical sectors
such as road transport, power distribution, manufacturing and urban planning, each of
which is foundational to the development of a robust EV ecosystem. From designing local
policies to enabling infrastructure on the ground, the effectiveness of the EV transition
hinges on state-level leadership and coordination.
Various state departments—transport departments, electricity regulatory commissions,
industries departments, and education and skill development departments—play a pivotal
role in enabling state level EV transitions. Moreover, achieving this transition requires
strong state capacity and an integrated approach, with states playing a key role in policy
implementation, infrastructure deployment and ecosystem development. Coordinated
efforts must address infrastructure gaps, skilling and affordability while ensuring inclusivity,
so that the benefits reach all sections of the society equitably.
As of now, 29 states and Union Territories have notified EV policies. These states
focus on developing various aspects of the e-mobility ecosystem, including demand
generation, supply-side support, skill development, employment and innovation. They
achieve this through a combination of fiscal and non-fiscal incentives. The EV policies
help in transitioning to e-mobility with a comprehensive approach involving incentives,
programmes, partnerships and a robust implementation plan. Figure 3 presents the status
of EV policies across India’s states and UTs.

8 Given the diversity of approaches being adopted across the country, facilitating the
exchange of knowledge and best practices among states holds significant value. Learning
from peers through policy initiatives, innovative approaches or implementation strategies
can help states adopt effective measures to accelerate their progress.
In addition to supporting evidence-based decision-making and foster accountability, there
is a pressing need for a robust feedback mechanism to assess the impacts of deployed
policies. A dedicated platform is needed to bridge the states’ knowledge gaps, that
assesses state-level e-mobility performance, highlights effective policymaking and guides
investment decisions.
Achieving India’s sustainable transportation goals requires innovative and informed policy
design, effective implementation and continuous peer-to-peer learning between states.
This highlights the urgent need for the following:
i. A Dynamic Tool for States in the EV Ecosystem
zThere is a strong need for a well-designed tool that can support key stakeholders in
the e-mobility landscape, including government officials, manufacturers, investors
and researchers. This tool should provide real-time data, useful insights and clear
analyses to support informed decision-making. It should help align state-level and
national efforts, making it easier to plan, implement and track e-mobility initiatives
across the country.
ii. Recognition of High-Performing States
zIdentifying and showcasing states that excel in e-mobility adoption, infrastructure
development and policy implementation is vital. Recognising such states can
encourage healthy competition, inspire others to implement the contextualised
solutions and promote innovation across the sector.
iii. Sharing of Successful Initiatives and Innovations from Leading States
zCreating a central platform to collect and share successful policies, programmes
and innovations from different states can benefit the entire country. By learning
from what has worked elsewhere, states can adopt similar measures, avoid common
challenges and speed up the development of their own e-mobility systems. This will
enable replication and accelerate EV ecosystem growth across India.
iv. Identification of Key Success Factors in E-Mobility Development
zEvaluating policy effectiveness and the needs for financial incentives, charging
infrastructure and R&D can help pinpoint drivers of e-mobility. This will guide states
and stakeholders to focus on the areas of impact for targeted development.
v. Encouragement for States to Adopt Proactive Approaches
zPerformance assessments can motivate states to adopt forward-looking strategies,
such as setting ambitious EV targets, investing in infrastructure and engaging private
players to foster innovation and growth.
vi. Aid to Policymakers in Making Informed Decisions
zBy identifying trends, infrastructure gaps and critical intervention areas, assessments
can empower policymakers to create region-specific strategies, optimise resource
use and ensure equitable and inclusive EV adoption.

12 IEMI FRAMEWORK
5 The IEMI is a collaborative initiative, the structure of which was developed with insights from
the central government ministries, state government departments, industry stakeholders as
well as domestic and global e-mobility experts. The IEMI themes comprise of the demand
drivers (Transport Electrification), supply-side ecosystem (EV Research and Innovation)
and allied infrastructure (Charging Infrastructure) required to support e-mobility progress.
The three themes encompass 16 performance indicators (parameters), categorised as
enablers and outcomes. Outcomes are metrics that measure the tangible results or impacts
of policies, actions and initiatives aimed at promoting e-mobility. Enablers refer to the
conditions, resources, policies, actions and initiatives supporting and driving e-mobility.

5.1 Transport Electrification Progress
The Transport Electrification Progress theme primarily addresses the market absorption
of EVs, capturing critical metrics that reflect adoption and utilisation. It is assigned the
highest weight as the most significant theme within the IEMI, playing a pivotal role in
determining the overall success of electrification efforts.
This theme’s importance stems from the fact that widespread EV adoption, both private
and commercial, is the ultimate indicator of consumer acceptance, market readiness and
effectiveness of policy interventions. Thus, EV adoption stimulates the manufacturing
industry, R&D and investments in R&D. Moreover, the EV adoption rate directly influences
the economic viability of EV manufacturing and infrastructure development, creating a
reinforcing cycle of demand and supply. A robust demand for EVs drives economies of
scale, technological innovation and cost reductions, thereby accelerating the transition
from ICE vehicles to sustainable alternatives.
By combining measurable outcomes with enablers such as governance initiatives, financial
incentives and infrastructure readiness, this theme provides a comprehensive view of how
demand-side factors catalyse the electrification of transport.

18 METHODOLOGY
OVERVIEW
6 The IEMI methodology involves the selection of indicators, data collection and evaluation
of states. This section details the technical notes and scoring methods adopted in the IEMI.
6.1 Technical Notes
6.1.1 Selecting Indicators
The selection of indicators focuses on the demand, supply and allied infrastructure. Indicators
are chosen based on their relevance, alignment with the local context and availability of
reliable data. The indicators are designed to evaluate state-level efforts and outcomes across
various dimensions of the e-mobility ecosystem. Each indicator is assessed using one or
more datapoints to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the ecosystem’s performance.
The indicators were developed through multiple stakeholder consultations with government
and industry stakeholders and e-mobility researchers and experts. Key stakeholders
include, central government ministries, state government and UT departments, industry
representatives including auto manufacturers, fleet operators and charge point operators,
and experts from academic institutions and research thinktanks.
Subsequently, the pilot index was tested in five states: Delhi, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh,
Haryana and Tamil Nadu. The IEMI framework was further developed through insights
from state-level workshops, assessment of data availability, and extensive feedback from
multiple stakeholders.
Detailed information on the indicators is available in Annexure 2.
6.1.2 Collecting Data
The data for evaluation is sourced from open-source platforms and Central Government
agencies, and they also include publicly available data from reliable third-party organisations.
These datasets are updated on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis, depending on the
source. This approach ensures continuous monitoring and evaluation and contributes to
building a more robust and comprehensive dataset. To ensure a comprehensive evaluation,
IEMI 2024 was evaluated using data from all four quarters of the year.
6.1.3 Dealing with Missing Values
In the IEMI, missing values in the dataset are addressed using a combination of strategies to
ensure data integrity and consistency. When missing datapoints are identified for a specific
indicator or state, efforts are made to retrieve the information from alternative secondary
sources. These include open-source platforms, Central Government databases and other
reliable third-party sources that could provide the most up-to-date and relevant data.
In instances where alternative sources for missing data are not available, the previous period’s
datasets are used. This approach ensures that the dataset remains as comprehensive and
reliable as possible, supporting accurate evaluations of state progress in the e-mobility
transition.India Electric Mobility Index 2024 | Tracking Electric Mobility Trends in Indian States
20 6.2 Scoring
The evaluation involves calculating the indicator, theme and index composite scores for each
state. Each theme comprises indicators that can be categorised into outcome indicators or
enabler indicators. Each indicator is scored based on targets set for each key performance
indicator. The indicator weightages are designed such that the outcome indicators account
for 50% of the overall index score. Figure 8 presents the detailed weightage distribution of

6.2.3 Indicator Score
The indicators are evaluated based on two scoring methods: absolute and relative scoring.
In the absolute scoring method, a state is scored based on the number of given initiatives
it is implementing. In the relative scoring method, a state is scored in comparison with the
performance of other states and UTs. Relative Scoring Indicators are private EV adoption,
commercial EV adoption, purchase incentives, fuel price parity, EV-to-EV charger ratio, share
of renewable energy generation capacity, power availability, EV Startups and EV Patents.
Absolute or Binary scoring Indicators are governance initiatives, transition initiatives,
operational support initiatives, charging infrastructure development initiatives, building
bylaws and mandates and R&D initiatives. Each indicator’s scoring method is tailored to
rationalise the evaluation process. Annexure 2 describes the indicator scoring methods.India Electric Mobility Index 2024 | Tracking Electric Mobility Trends in Indian States
22 IEMI RESULTS 2024
7 The IEMI results provide a holistic overview of the performance and progress of states and
UTs in advancing their e-mobility transition. The overall IEMI score indicates performance
across the EV ecosystem as a whole, while scores for the three themes highlight strong
performances in specific aspects of e-mobility. Outcome-level scores, for the outcome
indicators, provide quantitative measures of subnational performance on key indicators
such as EV adoption rates, EV charging infrastructure availability and levels of innovation
in the e-mobility ecosystem. This chapter details the IEMI, thematic and outcome-level
scores.
7.1 The IEMI Score
The IEMI score is determined by analysing the performance of each state/UT across all
indicators, alongside the weight attributed to the indicators and the overarching themes
of the index. This score reflects a state’s progress in advancing its e-mobility ecosystem.
A higher IEMI score indicates relatively strong performances across the three themes of
EV adoption, charging infrastructure readiness and EV technology and innovation. Based
on IEMI scores, states are categorised into frontrunners (leading with robust ecosystems),
performers (making progress) and aspirants (requiring intervention).

METHODOLOGY
DOCUMENTATION 2024
11 This section provides a comprehensive overview of the themes, indicators, scoring
methodology and data sources used to evaluate the e-mobility progress of all Indian states
and UTs.
11.1 Terminologies and Definitions
To better comprehend and clearly articulate this annexure, definitions of the terminologies
frequently used in it are summarised below:
1. Assessment period refers to the calendar year. The index is designed as an instantaneous
index. However, the limited availability of data necessitates the assessment of indicators
utilising values derived from the accessible yearly data.
2. Theme refers to a subdomain of e-mobility, linked to one or more significant outcomes.
The performance of themes is driven by state-specific policies, incentives, regulations
and processes. Each theme may have three or more parameters (performance
indicators). The themes are scored out of 100.
3. Indicators or parameters are key performance indicators of e-mobility. These could
be estimated using one or more datapoints. These performance indicators are often
normalised using the population, GSDP or number of EVs. The indicator value is its
estimated numeric or quantitative value.
4. Outcome indicators or parameters are performance indicators of a state that emerge
as a result of one or more initiatives undertaken by state governments that directly
help achieve the national e-mobility goals.
5. Enabler indicators or parameters serve as performance indicators that reflect state
government initiatives or characteristics over which the government largely exercises
control. These enablers aid in the growth or development of outcome parameters.
6. Datapoints are discrete units of information collected from various sources.
7. The indicator or parameter score for a state is calculated based on the state’s
performance on the indicator and the specific scoring method used for that indicator.
The indicators are scored out of 100.
8. The absolute scoring method involves scoring a state’s indicator based on predetermined
cut-off levels or functions.
9. The relative scoring method involves scoring a state’s indicator depending on how
a state compares with the other states under evaluation. For instance, performance
indicators of the 90th percentile among the states are targets (scored as 100), and
scores of the other states are estimated accordingly. The documentation details the
scoring method for each indicator.
10. The target value for an indicator is the cut-off at which the states are scored the
maximum score for the indicator:
a. The target value for absolute scoring is fixed or predefined.
b. The target value for relative soring d epends on indicator values of the candidate
states being evaluated.

Annexure 2: Methodology Documentation 2024 11.2 Index Structure: Themes, Indicators and Sources
The IEMI assesses the progress of e-mobility and highlights the key factors of a successful
transition. It promotes peer learning among states, thus aiding policy decisions, impactful
interventions and private investments. Development of the index involved a review of
global indices, collaboration with stakeholders, collation of feedback, data collection,
methodology development and evaluation.
The IEMI structure was designed with inputs from stakeholders in the Central and state
governments as well as national and international industry and research experts, and the
index was developed using open, Central Government and third-party datasets.
Its structure reflects the key aspects of the e-mobility ecosystem, which are applicable to
all states and UTs across the country. Accordingly, the index is organised into three main
themes: Transport Electrification Progress, Charging Infrastructure Readiness, and EV
Research and Innovation Status. These themes encompass the demand, infrastructure and
R&D required to support e-mobility and comprise 16 performance indicators, categorised
as enablers and outcomes, as shown in Table 6.
