GURUGRAM: The Gurugram Metropolitan City Bus Limited (GMCBL) could not get electric buses for its fleet even this year due to several delays and a decision to change the procurement method, officials said on Thursday. Twice firms were finalised to supply a batch of 100 buses but in one case, the state government rejected the firm due to its weak financial background, and in the second case due to the higher price of the buses, GMCBL officials said.
The batch of 100 AC electric buses under PM e-bus sewa scheme will now likely be procured by mid-2025, said Colonel Rameshwar Dass Singhal (retired), general manager (mobility division) of the Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA). GMCBL operates under the ambit of GMDA.
