The Indian electric vehicle (EV) market experienced robust growth in January 2026, with total registrations reaching approximately 218,000 units. This marks the fourth consecutive month that EV sales have surpassed the 200,000-unit milestone, solidifying the position of electric mobility despite reduced GST for internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles since October 2025.
Electric two-wheelers continue to lead the charge, accounting for approximately 122,000 units, the highest figure in the last 12 months. This highlights the segment's crucial role in India's EV ecosystem. Electric three-wheelers also showed significant growth, with about 75,764 vehicles registered. The consistent rise in EV adoption is attributed to a more stable production platform and improved supply of components, enabling manufacturers to boost production capacity.
