The Delhi government has released its draft Electric Vehicle Policy 2026, which includes a 50% exemption on road tax and registration fees for strong hybrid vehicles priced up to ₹30 lakh (approximately $36,000 USD). The policy also proposes a ban on the registration of new internal combustion engine petrol two-wheelers starting in April 2028 and CNG autorickshaws from 2027. Public suggestions are invited until May 10. The policy aims to encourage the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) and reduce pollution in the capital. All electric vehicles registered in Delhi will receive a 100% exemption from road tax and registration fees until March 31, 2030, with higher-end vehicles excluded from this benefit. The draft also outlines incentives for purchasing electric two- and three-wheelers, with a structured incentive system that decreases over three years. For example, buyers of electric two-wheelers will receive an incentive of ₹10,000 per kWh in the first year, tapering down in subsequent years. The policy allocates a total budget of ₹3,954.25 crore (approximately $480 million USD), with funds designated for purchase incentives, scrapping incentives, and the development of charging infrastructure. Chief Minister Rekha Gupta emphasized the policy's role in promoting clean transport and sustainability in Delhi.
