NITI Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant on Friday said there should be no road tax on electric vehicles to bring the ownership cost of electronic vehicles at par with combustion vehicles.
He said the NITI Aayog has suggested the states do away with road tax and issue green permits for electric vehicles.
"We have proposed to the chief secretaries that there should be no road tax for electric vehicles and green permits," said Kant at Energy Storage India, 2019.
"When the electric vehicle revolution happens, India would be impacted in the biggest way. These initiatives are being taken to bring the ownership cost of electric vehicles at par with combustion vehicles.
