EV Subsidies in India 2026

100% road tax and registration fee waiver on electric cars in Andhra Pradesh under AP Sustainable Electric Mobility Policy 4.0 (2024-2029) -- this is now the ONLY purchase-time benefit for private car buyers in AP, since the flat cash subsidy under the earlier 2021 policy was discontinued.

AP Sustainable Electric Mobility Policy 4.0 (2024-2029) restructured the two-wheeler incentive to a percentage-of-price discount: 5% of ex-showroom price (10% if the buyer submits an old-vehicle scrappage certificate), capped at Rs10,000, on scooters priced up to Rs1,00,000.

SCOPE UNCONFIRMED: it is not clear from sources found whether this applies to new EV purchases generally or specifically to converting an existing ICE vehicle to electric -- verify against the official MP EV Policy 2025 PDF (invest.mp.gov.in) before treating this as a general new-car purchase incentive.

100% registration fee waiver on all electric vehicles in Tamil Nadu under Tamil Nadu EV Policy 2023, extended through 31 Dec 2027.

100% road tax exemption on all electric vehicles registered in Telangana till 2030 per the original policy -- but the PURCHASE-INCENTIVE window (which includes this exemption for private cars) is explicitly capped at the FIRST 5,000 PRIVATE CARS and is currently confirmed running only through 31 Dec 2026, not the full 2030 policy horizon.

Telangana provides a 100% road tax + registration fee exemption on electric scooters (and two-wheelers generally), capped at the FIRST 200,000 two-wheelers. The Rs15,000 cash-subsidy figure previously stored here does not correspond to a real provision -- the original policy G.O. specifies no flat cash rebate for two-wheelers; that Rs15,000 figure appears to actually be an auto-rickshaw retrofitment subsidy, unrelated to scooters.
