Abstract:

The Vision of Gujarat State Electric Vehicle Policy 2019 is to position Gujarat as a leader in the adoption of electric vehicles as well as establish a supportive environment to encourage manufacturers and investors for the development of the EV market.

This policy was launched in line with FAME II Scheme i.e. for 3 years (Up to 31 March 2022) on 23 September 2019. The main objectives of this policy are to transition the State’s transportation sector towards electric mobility in phases, making Gujarat a Manufacturing Hub for EV and ancillary equipment. It also aims to encourage investment in electric mobility and job creation. 

As per FAME I statistics (from Dashboard), Gujarat is one of the leading performers in the country in the deployment of electric vehicles. A total of 31,000 Vehicles have already been sanctioned under this policy.
