Union Heavy Industries Minister H D Kumaraswamy had launched a portal to facilitate subsidies for electric trucks under the ongoing PM E-DRIVE scheme last month.
“Diesel trucks, though constituting only 3% of the total vehicle population, contribute to 42% of transport-related greenhouse gas emissions and significantly worsen air pollution,” Kumaraswamy had said.
To encourage decarbonisation, the centre is offering up to Rs 9.6 lakh as incentive for switching to electric trucks. The scheme is expected to support the deployment of approximately 5,600 e-trucks across the country from around Rs 500 crore.
An official statement said a dedicated provision for 1,100 e-trucks registered in Delhi has been made with an estimated outlay of Rs 100 crore.Beneficiaries will need to submit scrapping certificates of old trucks to be eligible to claim subsidies under the scheme. Officials said these certificates can be purchased through authorised retailers from scrapping centres.
