India to ask taxi aggregators to go electric

India plans to order taxi aggregators like Uber and Ola to convert 40% of their fleet of cars to electric by April 2026, according to a Reuters report. A decision to this effect is expected soon.

Two years ago, the Indian government had set an ambitious target to electrify new cars and utility vehicles by 2030 but resistance from the industry forced it to scale back the plan.
