Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will present the 8th consecutive Union Budget on February 1, 2025. Reports suggest that the government is mulling over cutting income tax for those who are earning up to Rs 15 lakh a year in February's budget, in turn providing relief to the middle class.
The electric vehicle sector has pinned high hopes on the Union Budget FY 2025-26 documents and is keeping its fingers crossed regarding their expectations from the government's most important financial document of the year.
“The Union Budget 2025 is a pivotal moment for the EV logistics sector, which plays a crucial role in India's transition to sustainable transportation. Targeted incentives for commercial fleet electrification, reduced financing costs for EV logistics operators, and a more structured GST framework for EV components can significantly accelerate adoption.
Additionally, policy support for localised battery recycling and supply chain development will strengthen India’s self-reliance in the EV ecosystem. With the right measures, the Budget can drive large-scale EV adoption in logistics, making clean mobility more accessible, efficient, and economically viable,” said Maxson Lewis, founder and CEO of Magenta Mobility.
