These charging facility would facilitate electric car owners to charge their cars at any time safely and conveniently. The chargers can also monitor the car battery charging status and units consumed while charging a car. The company plans to set up charging stations at various locations in Mumbai and is already in discussions with various stakeholders.

Currently, in India customers have a limited choice of electric cars which includes the Mahindra e2o and the Mahindra eVerito. In future, it is expected that Tesla and Nissan will bring in their electric vehicles to India as well. The likes of Mahindra, Tata Motors and Maruti Suzuki are focusing heavily on developing battery powered products for the country.
