·  Road tax assumed at 8% and registration charges at ~2.5–3% of ex-showroom price.

·  Total Savings = Road Tax Saved + Registration Charges Saved.

·  Cars above ₹30 lakh (BYD Seal, Kia EV6, Volvo XC40 Recharge, BMW i4, Mercedes EQB and Tesla Models S,3,X,Y) do not qualify under the draft Delhi EV Policy 2026… a clear middle finger to Western Companies 😁😁😁

·  Buyers also get a ₹1 lakh scrappage incentive if they trade in an old petrol/diesel car, which further reduces effective cost.

Looks like the Iran War has woken up the Govt to think in much clear terms.

USA-Israel seems to be indirectly pushing Iran to destroy Gulf Oil Industry… so that there will only be 2 Crude Oil sellers in the market… USA & Russia… both will benefit.

This war too will last at least 10 years… like all other wars before it… India should make the correct policy which will not allow the Chinese to pull a fast one on India.

Another thing to note is Cars do not consume as much petrol/diesel as 2-Wheelers in India. There are more 2-Wheelers in India than cars. So any EV policy that Govt makes has to MAINLY address the e2Wheeler market than the Car market.

Actually India does NOT need a Electric Vehicle Policy for Cars at all.

India needs EV policy ONLY for 2W, Rickshaws and all kinds of Buses. Nothing else.
