TL;DR
Delhi's new EV policy mandates 30% school bus fleet electrification by 2030 and offers 100% road tax and registration fee exemption for electric cars under ₹30 lakh.
The Delhi Government is set to introduce a new Electric Vehicle (EV) policy, aiming to electrify 30% of the entire school bus fleet by March 2030. This policy proposes a phased implementation, with 10% of the fleet becoming electric in two years and 20% in three years from its notification.
Furthermore, the new policy is expected to grant a 100% exemption from road tax and registration fees for all electric cars with an ex-factory price below ₹30 lakh until March 31, 2030, a move designed to significantly reduce vehicle prices and incentivize EV adoption among consumers. This initiative extends to all school buses, whether owned, leased, or hired by educational institutions, and also mandates the electrification of the entire government vehicle fleet upon policy notification.
