de-licensed activity, simplifying the process for businesses.
o Single-Window Process: Delhi government has implemented a single-
window process through DISCOMs for installing EV chargers in private/semi-
public spaces, streamlining permissions and subsidy availment.
o "EV Ready" Mandate: New buildings with at least 20 parking spaces are
proposed to require 20% of their parking to be EV-ready. Older buildings with
100+ parking spaces need 5% of their parking space for EV charging. Public
parking spaces will also have a minimum level of prescribed charging
infrastructure.
o Accessibility Targets: The government aims for at least one public charging
station every five kilometers and one charging/battery swapping station within
every one square kilometer area across the city. The target is to increase public
charging stations to 13,700 by 2030.
o Renewable Energy Integration: The policy encourages the use of renewable
energy sources, with a goal for half of the electricity used by electric buses
during the day and one-fourth at night to come from renewables by 2026. Bus
depots are likely to have rooftop solar systems.
• Tax Exemptions:
o SGST Reimbursement: 100% of net State Goods and Services Tax (SGST)
is provided as reimbursement to Energy Operators for the purchase of
Advanced Batteries used at swapping stations.
o Concessional Tariff: The tariff for electricity supply to EV charging stations
is single-part and shall not exceed "Average Cost of Supply" until March 31,
2028. Additionally, a concessional rate of 0.7 times the Average Cost of
Supply (ACoS) during solar hours (9 AM to 4 PM) and 1.3 times ACoS
during non-solar hours is applied.
• Employment Generation: The revamped EV policy aims to create 20,000 jobs
through the expansion of charging infrastructure and battery swapping facilities.

References to Official Policies:

While the "Delhi EV Policy 2.0" is still being finalized, the core benefits and incentives for
charging infrastructure from the Delhi EV Policy 2020 are largely continued and expanded
upon. Look for official notifications from the Delhi Transport Department and the Ministry of
Power for the most up-to-date policy documents and guidelines. The "Guidelines for
Installation and Operation of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure-2024" by the Ministry
of Power (September 17, 2024) is a crucial central government document.

EV Charging Infrastructure Business Sale:
Delhi NCR Analysis
Government Incentives & Policy Support: Delhi’s EV policies have created strong support
for charging infrastructure. The Delhi Electric Vehicle Policy 2020 (valid August 2020 –
June 2024) offers multiple incentives. It waived road-tax and registration fees for EVs, and
provides purchase subsidies (₹5,000/kWh for 2-wheelers up to ₹30k, ₹10,000/kWh for cars
up to ₹1.5L for the first 1,000 vehicles, etc.). Critically for infrastructure, the policy
guarantees concessional land leases for chargers (nominal rent on public parking or
government sites), and capital subsidies for charger installation (for chargers installed within
one year of site allocation). It also reimburses 100% of the SGST on high-capacity batteries
used for swap stations and mandates favorable electricity tariff/treatment (allowing open
access below 1 MW, special EV tariff by DERC). In addition, Delhi provides grants for
private/home chargers (100% of hardware cost up to ₹6,000 per point for the first 30,000
points). The policy has been extended multiple times; as of mid-2024 all these subsidies
remain in effect. The forthcoming EV Policy 2.0 (expected by 2025) aims to scale-up
infrastructure dramatically. It targets 13,700 charging stations by 2030 (∼1 per 5 km) and
3,500 operational by 2025, including fast-charging corridors on the Ring Road and highways.
Proposed 2.0 provisions include new capital subsidies (e.g. up to ₹2,500 per AC charger,
₹20,000 per DC fast charger for early adopters), mandatory EV-ready parking in new
buildings (20% of parking with chargers), and continuing concessional land/tariff
arrangements. A State EV Fund (financed by green cess and EV fees) will underwrite these
incentives. In neighboring states within NCR, supportive policies further boost demand:
Uttar Pradesh’s EV policy offers 10-year land leases to charging operators at a revenue-
share of only Re 1/kWh, and Haryana’s 2022 EV policy explicitly provides
incentives/subsidies for private charging and swapping stations.

• Concessional Locations: Delhi EV policy carves out public parking and government
land for EV charging, leased at minimal rates.
• Capital Subsidies: The government pays part of charger installation costs for projects
done early (within 1 year of site allocation).
• SGST Reimbursement: 100% of Delhi’s share of GST on batteries is refunded for
swap-station batteries.
• Ev-ready Construction Mandates: New residential/commercial projects must
provide power/parking infrastructure for EV charging (20% of space with
wiring/conduits).
• Tax/Fees Exemptions: Continued waiver of registration fees and road taxes for EVs,
and interest subvention on loans for commercial EV buyers (context).

Actionable Insight: Cite official Delhi EV Policy documents and press releases when
pitching these incentives. Emphasize that all existing subsidies remain in force (policy
extended through 2024) and major new funding (State EV Fund) is coming.

Delhi–NCR Market Potential


Delhi and its NCR suburbs represent one of India’s most advanced EV markets. Delhi
already consumes 40% of India’s EV charging electricity (306 MU out of 763 MU,
Apr’24–Feb’25), reflecting its leadership in EV adoption. EV sales in Delhi are surging (a
30% jump in 2024 vs 2022), with EVs now ~12% of new vehicle registrations. As of 2024
Delhi had ~183,000 registered EVs, while neighboring Uttar Pradesh (Noida, Ghaziabad)
recently surpassed 414,000 (driven largely by e-rickshaws). Haryana (Gurugram, Faridabad)
similarly promotes EV fleets and charging. Public transport is electrifying – Delhi is rolling
out hundreds of electric buses (DEVi initiative) and mandates e-auto conversions. This
growth is backed by government targets (25% of new vehicles battery EV by 2024 in old
policy; now 95% by 2027 in draft 2.0).

• Rapid EV Adoption: Nationwide EV registrations grew ~17% in FY25 (1.97M


units), led by Delhi-NCR demand. Local initiatives (CNG auto phase-out by 2027)
will force even faster shift to EVs.
• Dense Urban Demand: Delhi’s 20+ million people and congested roads create strong
demand for urban EVs (e-2Ws, e-3Ws, e-taxis). NCR suburbs (Noida, Gurugram)
host IT/logistics hubs whose fleets (delivery bikes, cabs, corporate EV cars) need
charging.
• Charging Infrastructure Gap: Delhi government’s goal of one station per 5 km
implies deployment of ~13,700 stations by 2030 – a huge increase from today’s
~5,000. At present, India has ~33,000 public chargers nationwide (≈135 EVs per
charger), so NCR expansion is critical.
• Battery-Swap Growth: The BaaS model is growing rapidly. Sun Mobility and
IndianOil plan 10,000 swap stations across India by 2030, reflecting demand from
two-/three-wheel fleets. Delhi already has ~400 swap kiosks under the 2020 policy,
and this will expand with new schemes.

Actionable Insight: Stress Delhi’s outsized EV energy use (40%) and government EV
targets as proof of near-term charging demand. Note existing charger shortfall and state push.
Include data like “5,000+ chargers today under Delhi policy” and “Delhi set to have 3,500
chargers by 2025” in the pitch to show growth runway.

Strategic Selling Points of Our Network


• Established Network: We own and operate a growing network (current count and
strategic sites) of fast-chargers and battery-swap stations across Delhi & NCR. These
include high-visibility locations (e.g. major malls, highways, metro terminals,
business districts) where demand is proven.
• Fast-Charge + Battery-Swap Mix: Unlike many competitors, our portfolio includes
both DC fast-charging for cars and battery-swap points for 2-/3-wheelers, capturing
multiple segments. Battery-swapping accelerates turnaround for high-use fleets.
• Ready-for-Regulatory Compliance: All our stations adhere to Delhi EV Cell
guidelines, DERC regulations and BIS/IEC standards. We have obtained the
necessary permissions (DISCOM connections with special EV tariffs, local permits,
fire/safety clearances) and maintain CE-certified equipment. This “compliance
package” de-risks acquisition.
• Power Infrastructure: We have established agreements with Delhi’s distribution
companies (BSES Rajdhani/Yamuna, Tata) for dedicated feeders or upgraded
metering to support high-load charging, ensuring reliability.
• Brand and Partnerships: Our brand is known in the Delhi EV community, and we
have MOUs with EV fleets and partners (e.g. e-rickshaw unions, taxi aggregators) for
charging access. We also participate in the Delhi SWITCH EV portal (official charger
directory).
• Growth Capacity: We can scale to ~500 stations by leveraging our partnerships and
project pipeline. These include secured lease sites ready for build-out (pending only
permit completion). The buyer would inherit these expansion rights.

Actionable Insight: Highlight that buying our business means inheriting fully operational
sites (with tenants/mix) and relationships. Emphasize high-usage sites and long-term
lease/contract stability. Provide usage statistics or testimonials if available.

Legal & Regulatory Support for Buyer


We offer to facilitate a smooth handover by handling all regulatory transfer tasks:

• Transfer of Licenses/Regs: We will help transfer any state EV cell registrations,


company licenses or statutory permissions (e.g. Panchayat or municipal land-use
NOCs).
• DISCOM Liaison: Our team will coordinate with local DISCOMs to transfer or
amend electricity contracts (including fast-metering and EV tariff categories) to the
buyer’s name and schedule any required load upgrades.
• Municipal Permits: Existing building and fire safety clearances will be reviewed; we
will assist in renewing or applying new permits where needed. We also handle land
lease assignments for sites on government or municipal land.
• Contractual Assignment: We will facilitate assignment of any vendor or service
contracts (e.g. battery swap service providers, maintenance agreements) to the buyer.
• Policy/Grant Applications: We will assist the buyer in claiming any pending
subsidies (e.g. EV policy capex grants) or tax incentives due. Guidance will be
provided on meeting ongoing compliance (e.g. periodic audits, reporting to the State
EV Fund).

Actionable Insight: Emphasize that due diligence is eased – all technical specifications,
safety certificates, and regulatory documents will be available. Offer to include a transition
team to brief the buyer on each site’s compliance status.

Expansion Strategies for Buyer


Our setup creates immediate opportunities to rapidly expand:

• Public-Private Partnerships: Delhi pioneered a PPP model for EV chargers,


aggregating land parcels and tendering 900 chargers at subsidized cost. The buyer can
bid in similar schemes (e.g. for metro parking lots, bus depots or airport zones). We
have the feasibility studies and contacts to engage in these PPP tenders effectively.
• Corridor and Highway Charging: The new policy calls for fast chargers along
major routes (Ring Road, highways). We can lead deployment at key interchanges
(e.g. NH-44, NH-48) since we already serve urban locations; this attracts heavy users
like logistics fleets.
• Fleet Integration: Partnerships with ride-hailing and delivery companies can drive
volume. We can offer tailored plans to taxi aggregators, municipal e-bus depots, e-
rickshaw unions, and last-mile courier fleets, ensuring baseline revenue. These
institutions often seek charging infrastructure partners.
• Build-Out to 500 Stations: We have identified ~X additional high-demand sites
ready for development. Accelerated investment (e.g. adding 50–100 chargers/year)
would hit the 500-station network goal. Combining our partners’ capital with the
buyer’s resources can achieve this quickly.
• Battery-Swap Rollout: Align expansion with Sun Mobility/IndianOil’s push (10,000
swap stations by 2030). Our existing swap stations can be increased in coordination
with IOCL’s network (e.g. install swaps at petrol pumps), capturing growth in
2W/3W segments.
• Green Energy Integration: Take advantage of Delhi’s renewable targets (50%
charging energy from solar by 2026). We can add solar canopy systems at station sites
to reduce costs and qualify for green grants.

Actionable Insight: Propose a phased roll-out plan in the pitch. For example, Year 1 focus
on adding fast DC chargers at 20 new sites and partnering with 2 fleet operators; Year 2 build
swap stations and bid for PPP packages. Highlight that our network and market knowledge
allow faster execution than a new entrant.

Competitive Landscape in Delhi–NCR


The charging network in Delhi NCR includes utility-led and private players, but demand still
outstrips supply:

• Major Providers: The Delhi discom BSES (via EV Motors India) has installed
~5,000 public chargers (mostly AC and older GB/T/CHAdeMO units). Companies
like Tata Power, ABB, and Ionex operate DC fast chargers in the region. State entities
(EESL/NSEFI) rolled out chargers in government sites. Oil companies (IOCL, BPCL)
are adding chargers at fuel stations. Battery-swap networks include Sun Mobility,
Battery Smart, etc.
• Growth Trends: New investment is flowing – aggressive expansion plans and
tenders by government/statutory bodies. The PPP model (Delhi’s “₹2/unit” scheme)
overcame location hurdles. However, a recent survey found poor reliability in
Delhi’s public chargers: ~84% of sampled chargers were non-functional or blocked.
This demonstrates a gap in quality service. Customers will pay a premium for
reliable, accessible charging, which is our advantage.
• Our Edge: Compared to generic networks, our stations are well-maintained, use
modern CCS2/CHAdeMO standards, and are in higher-density zones. We have fewer
“dead” chargers than competitors (many old chargers run out of service). We also
offer battery swapping (rare among Delhi networks) and fleet services. Our branding,
customer support, and data analytics further differentiate us.

Actionable Insight: Use the fact that Delhi leads nationally in EV charging yet still faces
shortages. Cite the 5,000 chargers installed by BSES and note the need for more (NITI-
Aayog benchmark is 6–20 EVs per charger vs India’s 135). Stress that our high-utilization,
turnkey stations are more valuable than simply “land plots with poles.”
