India Electric Vehicle Powertrain Systems Market Synopsis
Stringent regulations on emission and fuel efficiency, government schemes towards the adoption of electric vehicles coupled with the need for a pollution-free environment are a few of the factors contributing to the growth of the electric vehicle powertrain systems market in India. The growth of the electric vehicle market is also critical for the energy transition in the country, reducing the reliance on oil imports and escalating the demand for renewable power. Further, technology improvement, cost reduction, and local manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries are expected to catalyze the growth of the EV market in India.
According to 6Wresearch, India electric vehicle powertrain market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 26% during 2017-23. Battery EV powertrain systems captured the majority of the India electric vehicle powertrain market share in terms of revenues, owing to the subsidies and tax rebates offered by the government to EV users and manufacturers. Although, charging infrastructure challenges are still present, however, government's target of 6 million EVs on roads backed by its firm actions is likely to overcome these challenges during the forecast period.
In 2016, two-wheeler EV registered the majority of the market volume, however, as a result of rising income level coupled with cost reduction of electric cars, the passenger car segment is anticipated to register the highest growth in the India Electric Vehicle Powertrain Market forecast period.

Government Initiatives Introduced in the India Electric Vehicle Powertrain Systems Market
The Government of India has recognized the importance of electric vehicles and has taken several initiatives to encourage their use. Under the National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP), the government aims to have six to seven million electric vehicles on Indian roads by 2020. In 2015, the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid &) Electric Vehicles (FAME) scheme was launched to promote the use of electric and hybrid vehicles in the country. The scheme provides incentives to buyers of electric vehicles and also supports the development of EV infrastructure. Additionally, these actions have raised the India Electric Vehicle Powertrain Systems Market Share. Further, the Indian government has also encouraged automobile manufacturers to invest in the EV market. In 2018, the government announced that it planned to have only electric vehicles on the roads by 2030. Later, it was revised to have 30% of all vehicles in the country run on electricity by 2030. This target is being pursued with vigour by several automobile manufacturers who are now developing and launching electric vehicles in India.
Key Players in the India Electric Vehicle Powertrain Systems Market
The India Electric Vehicle Powertrain Systems Market is highly competitive, with key players like Tata Motors, Mahindra & Mahindra, and Ashok Leyland taking a significant share of the market. Likewise, some of the corporations occupy immense India Electric Vehicle Powertrain Systems Market Revenues. Additionally, global players such as Bosch, Continental, and Denso Corporation have invested heavily in the market, providing technologically advanced solutions and strengthening their presence in the country.
Market by Component
According to Ravi Bhandari, Research Head, 6Wresearch, the key components in the India Electric Vehicle Powertrain Systems market include motor/generator and engines. The motor/generator in an electric vehicle powertrain system is responsible for converting electrical energy stored in the battery to mechanical energy that powers the wheels. In India, the most common type of motor used in electric vehicles is the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM). PMSMs are highly efficient, have a high power density and provide fast acceleration. They are also relatively smaller in size and more lightweight than their counterparts, thereby making them ideal for use in electric vehicles. Additionally, the traditional internal combustion engine that powers conventional vehicles is replaced by an electric motor in an electric vehicle powertrain system. The electric motor provides a cleaner and greener alternative to conventional fuels, helping to reduce carbon emissions. In India, electric vehicles are touted as the future of mobility, with the government providing incentives to promote their adoption. However, the high cost of electric vehicles and limited charging infrastructure acts as a bottleneck to their widespread adoption.
Market by Vehicle Type
The commercial vehicle segment of the India electric vehicle powertrain systems market is also experiencing rapid development. The segment includes all electric vehicles designed for cargo or passenger transportation, such as buses and trucks. With the continuing growth of e-commerce and logistics industries in India, the demand for electric commercial vehicles is steadily increasing. This trend is supported by supportive government policies to promote electric public transportation, as well as the need for more environmentally friendly cargo transport solutions.
