"The EV Sector in India is growing
exponentially since 2017 – 2018. The abnormal increase in the fossil fuel
prices made people to rethink and their views in transportation. With lithium
–ion battery has increased the movement of using the EV sector as
it increased the vehicle life to 3-5 years" BBMI CEO A.L.N.Abhinay Raju said.
On his conversation with wheelsatev.com,
he further added "Increased pollution levels of all major cities and towns in
India due to emission of carbons by fuel vehicles, made people to
move towards EV. The battery swappable technology and multiple charging
stations with fast charging can motivate the people to move towards EV
sector".

During the conversation with our team,
Abhinay Raju opened up his mind on Atmanirbhar Bharat and his
long term plans. He said "Atmanirbhar bharat can be possible in EV sector only when India start manufacturing
every component in India itself. Though some exceptions are there, we can
consider Battery packs, chargers, Controllers and
mechanical parts and software related to BMS and Bluetooth operated
devices can be made in India itself with the present technology".
"As battery is the source that powers
EV, we still completely dependent on china and other countries for
battery cells and plastic moulds. Also Govt.
of India should support technology through technical seminars and
knowledge transfer programs along with encouraging young talents to set up
spare parts manufacturing and fibre parts manufacturing sector. Govt of India
should provide subsidy and incentives at least for 3-5 years for manufacturing
startups in EV sector and should encourage the new development in EV
sector more" he added.
