As per the new rules, buildings to be constructed for commercial use, educational institutes, hospitals and Information Technology (IT) parks, among others, having more than 50 immovable parking slots for four-wheelers, should provide 25 per cent parking space for electric vehicles. The building owner should get the required additional power load sanctioned by the power utility.
