Hindustan Times West UP
|July 08, 2025
LUCKNOW: Electric vehicle registrations in Uttar Pradesh touched a new high in the April-June quarter of FY 2025-26, with 70,770 EVs availing Rs 255.50 crore in tax and fee exemptions, including over 21,000 electric two and four-wheelers.
While the state pushes ahead asa national leader in EV adoption, the first-quarter performance report released by the transport department also shows revenue growth and expanding digital transactions — though questions remain over enforcement, sustainability of subsidies and service delivery gaps.
‘According to the department, total revenue for the quarter stood at Rs 2,913.78 crore, ayear-on-year increase of 10.39%.
This accounts for 85.9% of the quarterly target, suggesting that the Rs 14,000 crore annual target may be achievable. Revenue in June alone was Rs 830.15 crore, up 4.1% from June 2024 — despite heavy tax waivers on EVs and disruptions from the ongoing transfer season.
