National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP) 2020:
The Indian Automotive industry contributes about 7.1% to the National GDP and this thing makes necessary for the government to keep this industry updated with the current demand. A static shows that two-wheeler in the country is adding 05 to 07 million tonnes of CO2 every year. The current environmental conditions will not accept this much of pollution anymore. Implementation of National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP) 2020 is the Indian government vision and roadmap for the faster adoption of electric vehicles and their manufacturing in the country.

In addition, 465 buses were sanctioned to various cities/states under this scheme. Under the NEMMP 2020, there is an ambitious target to achieve 06-07 million sales of hybrid and electric vehicles by the year 2020.
Currently under the Phase-II of FAME Scheme, Indian Government has planned to promote to set-up the charging infrastructures and also sanctioned Rs. 10,000 Crore to provide the incentives to electric vehicle manufacturer and EVs buyer.

My Words
Tunwal E-Vehicle has made a very good network and reached to an even bottom level of the market (i.e- a village and small township). The product offered is designed in a such a way that it can be used in day to day activity or even for the small business purpose like carrying milk, vegetables, other goods and scooters are very much capable to support every type of activity. Many of the scooter and upcoming bike have a stainless steel rod which protects the vehicle from all around. Commercial or Personal purpose heavy-duty food rest is also provided which will help to carry the extra luggage (if needed). What I can say that the company just need to focus on the standardization of its dealership and some extend of product advertisement can help in growing of Tunwal E-Vehicle. Customer reach and awareness about the product portfolio can be increased through social networking also. At that point, improvement can be done.
