Delhi Cabinet approved EV Policy 2.0 with road-tax waivers and subsidies for electric two/three-wheelers and cars, plus phased ICE bans. EV makers Ather and Kinetic Green welcomed it; ICE manufacturers via SIAM opposed registration blocks.

Why this matters

Delhi EV Policy 2.0 escalates earlier EV incentive efforts into hard mandates, pairing steep subsidies with a registration ban that splits EV makers from legacy ICE manufacturers ahead of the 2028 deadline.
