“The past few days have been great for the EV industry, with progressive policies continuing to come into play. The removal of the 4% road tax on EVs will significantly reduce upfront costs of the vehicles. This has also come at an opportune time for Ather as we begin deliveries of Ather 450X in Chennai this Deepavali. With this announcement, owners of Chennai and Coimbatore will now save nearly INR 6900 when they purchase Ather scooters. This is a welcome for the entire industry and will accelerate the shift to EVs.” Quoted Mr. Ravneet Singh Phokela, Chief Business Officer, Ather Energy
