Conventional fuels have been utilised for transportation for more than a century, and throughout that time they have caused major environmental and humanitarian problems. Continuous use of conventional fuels causes air pollution, greenhouse gases and respiratory illnesses in humans resulting in premature deaths. There is a need to transition from convenional fuels and toward cleaner, greener alternative fuels. The purpose of this study is to look into the evolution, current policy scenario and future prospects of electric automobiles in India. This paper is conceptual in nature. Data is gathered from a variety of secondary sources, such as websites and reports. More accessibility to alternative fuels to the public by expanding fuel infrastructure and educating the public about the environmental and financial benefits of alternative fuels, the government can increase the likelihood of alternative fuel adoption.
