"However, in the new norms, it will become extremely difficult, if not impossible to comply without BEVS in the mix. Or else, the companies will face significant penalties and also will face the risk of adverse impact on the brand the prices of internal combustion image," Chandra said.

He expects that in the next 5-6 years, the mix of CNG and EVs will see a significant rise in the volumes. "Beyond 2027, the trend will be steeper because of this regulation," he added.
