Industry Overview:

The Indian automobile sector is gradually recovering as the passenger vehicle and two-wheeler
industries registered strong demand, after the easing of lockdown restrictions in FY2020-21. The EV industry is in the middle of one of the biggest revolutions in the Automobile sector. Leading players in this segment are rapidly expanding their presence and trying to capitalize on this opportunity.

In a big boost to battery and EV firms, Finance Minister Nirmala in the Budget 2022 announced the framing of a battery swapping policy to facilitate EV charging stations for automobiles. This move is expected to help battery management companies and boost EV sales with a focus on clean mobility as the government plans to develop special mobility zones for electric vehicles.
