Delhi drops draft EV policy 2026-2030 with 30L car incentives
Delhi just dropped its draft Electric Vehicle (EV) Policy for 2026-2030, and it's all about making the city greener.
The plan? Tax breaks and zero registration fees for electric cars priced up to ₹30 lakh (ex-showroom), plus extra incentives if you scrap your old vehicle.
Starting January 1, 2026, cab aggregators and delivery fleets can no longer add new petrol or diesel vehicles, though BS-VI two-wheelers remain allowed until December 31, 2026.
EVs get the main push, though BS-VI two-wheelers remain allowed until December 31, 2026.
Delhi to register only electric 2-wheelers
Electric two-wheelers under ₹2.25 lakh get special perks, but these will phase out over three years as Delhi moves toward registering only electric two-wheelers from April 1, 2028.
More charging stations and battery swap spots are coming citywide through Delhi Transco Ltd., and new busses added by DTC and the Transport Department, new vehicles hired or leased by the Delhi government, and government goods vehicles must go electric.
Schools are also set to switch 30% of their busses to electric by 2030.
The draft is open for public feedback for the next month if you want to have your say!
