Battery demand could rise 10x as new chemistries emerge
India’s EV battery demand is projected to grow tenfold, reaching 200 GWh by 2032, according to IESA. The surge is expected to reshape India’s supply chain and boost localization of key components like cells, motors, and manufacturing capabilities. While electric two-wheelers currently lead, passenger cars and light commercial fleets are poised to drive the next phase.
