EV Policy Guide

Maharashtra EV Policy

Policy: Maharashtra Electric Vehicle Policy · Official portal

Last updated: April 2026

Maharashtra has one of the most commercially-focused EV policies in India, with strong emphasis on demand-charge waivers for charging circuits and capex support for public charging infrastructure. For commercial property owners, fleet operators, and CPOs, the tariff-side benefits often outweigh the headline buyer subsidies. Maharashtra is also a leading manufacturing hub with significant auto-component and EV assembly capacity.

Maharashtra EV buyer incentives

Subsidies, road-tax exemptions, and registration benefits for individual and commercial EV buyers in Maharashtra.

  • Electric two-wheelers: State subsidy up to ₹10,000 per vehicle on top of FAME II.
  • Electric three-wheelers: Up to ₹30,000 per vehicle on top of central incentives.
  • Electric cars: Early-bird purchase incentive for the first defined tranche of units; amount subject to policy notification.
  • Registration & road tax: 100% waiver on registration fees and road tax for EVs registered during the policy period.
  • Fleet incentives: Enhanced subsidies for electric taxi, auto, and goods-vehicle fleet conversion.

EV charging station subsidies & policy in Maharashtra

Capex subsidies, tariff concessions, and charging-infrastructure policy provisions in Maharashtra — relevant for dealers, CPOs, and commercial property owners installing chargers.

  • Demand-charge waiver: No demand charges (kVA-based) on dedicated EV charging circuits during the initial policy period — a major operational benefit for sites deploying fast chargers.
  • Charger capex subsidy: Capital subsidy on public charging stations, with enhanced rates for fast chargers in priority corridors and smaller towns.
  • Concessional electricity tariff: Dedicated EV-charging tariff with time-of-day benefits and waiver of certain fixed charges.
  • Commercial building mandate: EV-ready parking provisions mandated in new commercial and group-housing construction above defined thresholds.

Policy provisions change by notification. Confirm current values with the Maharashtra transport department or the official policy portal before signing a contract or claiming a subsidy. This guide is updated periodically but is not a substitute for the official government notification.

How Tech OVN fits

Tech OVN manufactures OCPP-compliant AC EV chargers (3.3 kW to 22 kW) and a Class 0.5S smart energy meter from our facility in Binola, Haryana. Both product lines are deployed across Maharashtra through our dealer and CPO partner network.

If you're planning to apply for a charger capex subsidy in Maharashtra, become an EV charging dealer, or integrate revenue-grade metering for CPO revenue sharing — we can help with the hardware, installation, and the BOQ for your subsidy application.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Maharashtra EV policy exempts dedicated EV charging circuits from kVA-based demand charges during the initial policy period. This is a significant operational benefit for fast chargers where demand spikes can otherwise add ₹20–50/kVA monthly.
Apply through the Maharashtra Energy Development Agency (MEDA) or the state transport department with a standardised BOQ, site plan, and charger specifications. Post-commissioning, the capex subsidy is disbursed against evidence of operation. Tech OVN chargers meet the hardware specifications required for the claim.
Full road tax and registration fee waiver for EVs registered during the policy period. Check the current status with the Regional Transport Office (RTO) before purchase — policy windows get extended but typically not retroactively.
Yes — Pune/Chakan, Aurangabad, and Nashik industrial belts have strong auto-component and EV-assembly ecosystems. The state offers manufacturing incentives through its industrial policy, stackable with central PLI schemes for auto and ACC batteries.
