Marking its 100th day, the monumental Bharat Maha EV Rally, the world's longest electric vehicle rally, concluded a landmark phase of its journey at ICAT in Manesar, Haryana, where it received a celebratory welcome. The rally’s nationwide expedition, organised by the International Federation of Electric Vehicle Association (IFEVA), is a transformative campaign designed to assess and accelerate India's electric mobility landscape. Its core mission is to dismantle prevalent myths, demonstrate the practicality of long-distance EV travel and foster widespread awareness.

Under the leadership of IFEVA President Dr Rajeev Mishra and a dedicated team, the rally has achieved an extraordinary footprint, traversing all 28 states and eight union territories of India, along with international stretches in Bhutan and Nepal. This ambitious journey has garnered unprecedented support, receiving flag-offs and endorsements from a diverse array of leaders including Chief Ministers, Governors, Union and State Ministers and spiritual guides, signifying a broad-based national consensus on electrification.

A pivotal aspect of the rally's outreach has been its deep engagement with the academic community. The convoy has visited hundreds of institutions, including premier establishments like IITs and IIMs, facilitating direct interactions where students and faculty experienced EVs firsthand, participated in dynamic discussions and had their queries addressed by experts. This initiative has successfully ignited enthusiasm and curiosity among the nation's youth.

By actively collaborating with government bodies, industry players from large manufacturers to MSMEs, educational institutes and consumers, the rally is gathering critical, on-ground insights. These findings are poised to inform future policy and infrastructure development decisively. Ultimately, the Bharat Maha EV Rally stands as a powerful testament to India's commitment to sustainable transportation, clearly showcasing the rapid adoption of EVs and the expansion of supporting infrastructure, thereby solidifying the country's position as a frontrunner in the global electric vehicle revolution.

Delhi-NCR-based electric vehicle battery swapping organisation Battery Smart has announced that it has become the first company in India to complete 100 million battery swaps across its network for electric two- and three-wheelers.

The achievement comes five years after the company’s founding. Battery Smart claims it currently operates approximately 70 percent of the battery-swapping infrastructure in the country.

To mark the achievement, the company has launched an INR 100 million Driver Welfare Fund 2026, which is designed to provide insurance, financial protection and skill development for approximately 100,000 electric vehicle (EV) drivers. The fund also includes referral programmes, free swaps and community inclusion initiatives.

Pulkit Khurana and Siddharth Sikka, Co-Founders of Battery Smart, said, “Crossing 100 million swaps is a landmark for EV adoption in India, not just for us. It demonstrates the potential of battery swapping to make clean mobility accessible, affordable, and inclusive at scale. Each swap represents a choice, a driver choosing clean mobility over combustion, assurance over anxiety and improved uptime over long waiting hours. This achievement belongs to our community of drivers, battery swap station partners, OEM collaborators, investors, and policymakers who believed that battery swapping could succeed at scale in India.”

The company’s ecosystem includes over 5,000 women drivers and 250 women partners. Its technology utilises IoT-enabled batteries and real-time monitoring to enable predictive maintenance and minimize downtime for drivers in the gig economy.

“Looking ahead, the Driver Welfare Fund reinforces our commitment to the community that made this possible. As we continue to grow, we remain focused on strengthening India’s EV mobility backbone, powered by smarter IoT batteries, more efficient station operations, and robust safety systems. This milestone is just the beginning, and together, we are building the future of clean mobility for India,” added Sikka.

Going forward, Battery Smart intends to expand into 100 additional cities by 2026. The company’s roadmap involves deploying more swap stations and increasing daily swap capacity to meet demand from commercial operators. Planned investments include safety systems and IoT intelligence as the company continues to work with regulators and industry stakeholders.
