GoZapX has installed around 100 charging stations within a couple of months of its inception, while there are only 1800 charging stations across India.
People aren’t buying vehicles since they have range anxiety and there is a lack of adequate charging infrastructure even though there are waivers on taxes, registration fees, and huge subsidies up to 2.5 lakhs being offered by different state governments and rising petrol prices are also a concern.
