India’s electric commercial vehicle (e-CV) industry is showing strong momentum in 2025, with sales crossing 1,000 units for three consecutive months, May, June, and July. In July alone, 1,248 units were sold, making it the second-highest monthly sales since the peak of 2,156 units in March 2024 before the FAME II subsidy ended.
From January to July 2025, a total of 7,054 e-CVs have been sold, already reaching 70% of last year’s full-year sales of 10,076 units. This growth suggests that the segment is on track to achieve a new annual record.
Over 1,000 units sold in each of the past three months.
Light goods carriers dominate with 4,403 units sold, making up 62% of total sales (up from 59% last year).
Passenger e-buses sold 2,427 units (flat YoY), heavy goods carriers sold 158 units (up 22% YoY), and electric vans sold 66 units (up 267% YoY).
Tata Motors leads with 29% share, but its market share dropped from 62% last year, while Mahindra’s share rose from 7% to 18%.
Tata Motors remains the market leader, selling 2,035 units between January and July 2025. However, this is a 49% drop from 3,990 units in the same period last year, mainly due to a decline in e-LCV sales from 3,047 units in 2024 to 1,940 units in 2025.
Tata’s e-LCV portfolio includes the Ace EV, Ace EV 1000, Ace Pro EV, and Intra EV — catering to last-mile delivery, FMCG, e-reefer, and waste management needs. The company also sells heavy-duty models like the E28K and Ultra E12, as well as the Ultra E9 for passenger transport.
Mahindra has seen remarkable growth with its Zeo electric mini-truck, selling 1,245 units, a 188% increase compared to last year. The Zeo offers a real-world range of 160 km and comes with a 7-year/150,000 km warranty.
Switch Mobility, the electric vehicle arm of Ashok Leyland, recorded a 266% YoY sales increase, delivering 870 units. Its e-LCV sales also grew 184% YoY to 341 units.

A Tata Motors spokesperson said, “Our commitment to sustainable mobility remains strong. While the market is seeing dynamic changes, we continue to focus on efficient and reliable electric CV solutions for evolving customer needs.”
A Mahindra Last Mile Mobility executive added, “The surge in Zeo sales reflects customer trust in our products. With strong range, reliability, and after-sales support, we aim to expand our presence in the electric goods carrier market.”
With steady monthly sales, strong e-LCV demand, and more models launching, India’s electric commercial vehicle market is expected to set a new sales record in 2025. Increasing demand for zero-emission last-mile and mid-mile transportation will likely keep the growth trend strong in the coming months.
