| Summary, etc | As the country prepares for a greener transportation future, it is clear that policy-driven innovation has a vital role in boosting homegrown electric vehicle (EV) start-ups. The article takes a closer look at how specific government initiatives—such as the faster adoption and manufacturing of hybrid and electric vehicles scheme, production-linked incentives and various state-level EV policies—interact with the innovation strategies of these start-ups. These policies not only offer financial support but also guide the trajectory of technological progress, market entry and the overall ecosystem development. The article also focuses on the challenges that hinder ongoing innovation in the EV space, including inconsistencies in policies between central and state governments, a lack of a well-developed charging infrastructure, fragmented coordination among institutions and a heavy reliance on imported components like lithium-ion cells and motors. These structural issues could stifle the growth of start-ups and make the ecosystem vulnerable to external shocks. Yet, despite these obstacles, Indian EV start-ups have shown impressive creativity, often driven by the need to create localised solutions amid resource limitations. By using a mixed-methods approach that includes policy analysis and global comparisons, this study offers a thorough look at how government support, when effectively aligned with infrastructure and institutional growth, can ignite sustainable innovation. The article makes a compelling case that while innovation driven by policy can significantly influence the future of India’s EV landscape, its effectiveness really depends on tackling systemic inefficiencies and encouraging long-term collaboration among all the involved parties.- Reproduced https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/00195561251370519 |
