Delhi’s EV specific Portal Hopes to give a fillip to EV adoption

To ease the availing of interest subvention on loans taken to purchase electric autos (e-Auto Rickshaws), the Delhi Government has launched ‘My EV Portal’. The move is expected to help the auto rickshaw drivers who look to switch to the electric ones from the CNG.

My EV Portal website has been developed by the Government of Delhi along with Convergence Energy Services Limited (CESL) which has made Delhi the first state to provide such a facility. The portal can be accessed at https://www.myev.org.in

The government statement said, “The interest rate subvention provided on electric autos will provide an additional incentive of Rs 25,000 over the purchase incentive of Rs 30,000.” My EV portal will also be the single window for the purchase and loan of electric autos. The government says though in the present, the plan is running for electric autos only, but it will soon be expanded to cover lithium-ion based e-rickshaws, e-carts and electric light goods vehicles in the state.
