The Indian Railways will install electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at all major railway stations in the country in the next three years under a new policy of promoting e-mobility. Railway stations in mega cities with a population of more than four million each will be taken up in the first phase.

The company, a part of the Chhattisgarh-based Hira Group, plans to invest up to Rs. 150 crore by 2023 for setting up an electric vehicle manufacturing unit at Raipur and to launch new products as it looks to expand in the south and western India market. The funding will be completely through internal accruals.

Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL) is expanding its footprint in e-mobility business.
