Outlook of Future Mobility in India with EV Transition

The automotive industry is a major driver of India's economy, contributing 7% of GDP and supporting 37 million jobs. To address the transport sector's role as the third-largest GHG emitter, India is transitioning to electric vehicles (EVs) with a target of 30% EV sales share by 2030, supported by schemes like FAME and PM e-DRIVE.

• The automotive industry has grown to represent 7% of India's national gross domestic product (GDP) over the last twenty years and supports approximately 37 million jobs across the country.
• Transport is the third-largest source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in India, representing about 14% of energy-related carbon emissions in 2020, with road transportation accounting for over 92% of that figure.
• India aims for a 30% electric vehicle (EV) sales share by 2030, supported by policy interventions including the FAME I (2015) and II (2019) schemes and the PM e-DRIVE scheme operational since 2024.
