Delhi receives central approval to set up EV charging infrastructure across 382 sites, with tenders expected to be issued for an initial batch of locations soon. Business Line and India Today both report that the plan includes floating tenders for roughly the first 160–180 sites.
The approvals are linked to Delhi’s EV policy, which is described as coming into effect on July 1, 2026. India Today frames the development as an approval for 382 sites with a phased rollout, while Business Line emphasizes the government of national capital territory of Delhi (GNCTD) proceeding toward tenders for charging stations at 180 sites. Swarajya likewise reports central approval for 382 sites and reiterates that tenders for the first 160–180 locations will be launched soon, aligning with the phased-tender approach.
Across outlets, the main differences are in the way the initial tender count is expressed (180 versus 160–180), but all accounts describe central clearance for a 382-site network and a near-term tendering process for the first set of locations.
