According to the market research report published by P&S Intelligence, Indian electric car market is projected to reach $707.4 million by 2025. The market is predominantly driven by the government schemes, growing environmental concerns, and falling battery prices. Several incentives, such as tax rebates, grants, and subsidies, have been launched by the central and state governments in order to increase electric car adoption in the country.

Government schemes and subsidies are playing a major role in the growth of the Indian electric car market. The urban population has increased rapidly over the past decade, resulting in rise in pollution levels. To curb this issue, the Indian government is encouraging and supporting the adoption of electric cars through its several financial schemes and incentives. Several policies related to electric vehicle (EV) have been announced by the public authorities of India over the past few years indicating substantial action and ambition for the adoption of EVs in the country.

For instance, in 2015, the Indian government introduced a scheme under the National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP) namely Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid &) Electric Vehicles (FAME) scheme to encourage the adoption of clean fuel technology cars that boosted the growth of the Indian electric car market. The scheme was launched in the Union Budget for the fiscal year 2015–2016 with a primary expense of $11.46 million (INR 75 crores). It was targeted to decrease the upfront purchase value of electric and hybrid vehicles and to stimulate their early adoption.
