Delhi Extends EV Policy Till March 2026

25 Jul 2025 CW Team

The Delhi government has extended its existing Electric Vehicle (EV) Policy until 31 March 2026, or until a revised version is approved. The decision was made during a Cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Tuesday.

According to Transport Minister Pankaj Kumar Singh, the draft of the new policy will undergo broader public consultation before being finalised, prompting the extension to allow time for thorough stakeholder engagement.

The consultation process will include inputs from citizens, environmental groups, academic institutions, industry experts, and private firms. Key focus areas include upgrading EV charging infrastructure, revising subsidies, establishing e-waste and battery disposal systems, and refining the division of responsibilities between public and private entities.

Delhi’s original EV Policy, launched in August 2020, aimed to make 25 per cent of new vehicle registrations electric by 2024. Though it officially ended in August 2023, the policy has since been extended multiple times.

The draft of EV Policy 2.0 prioritises the electrification of mass transport segments, such as two-wheelers, three-wheelers, buses, and goods carriers. It also outlines new financial incentives, including proposed subsidies of up to Rs 36,000 for women buyers of electric two-wheelers and Rs 10,000 per kWh (capped at Rs 30,000) for other buyers.

While the revised policy was initially expected by July 2025, the final rollout has been delayed to accommodate extended public consultations.

The extension allows the government time to refine the framework based on comprehensive feedback and ensures continuity in Delhi’s EV transition efforts.
