India Records Over 3.3 Lakh EV Registrations in September 2026
India’s electric vehicle market recorded its strongest month so far in September 2026, with EV registrations across different vehicle segments crossing the 3.3 lakh mark.
According to registration data, September became the fourth consecutive month when electric vehicle registrations crossed 3 lakh units in India. Electric two-wheelers remained the biggest contributor, while electric passenger vehicles also recorded their highest monthly registrations.
The data shows that EV demand continued to grow across two-wheelers, cars and three-wheelers. The final September figure could increase slightly as some vehicle registrations can take time to appear on the Vahan dashboard.

Compared with September 2025, when electric three-wheelers recorded 61,434 registrations, the latest figure represents a significant increase. The performance across two-wheelers, passenger vehicles and three-wheelers helped push India’s total EV registrations above 3.3 lakh units for the month.
