EKA Mobility, an electric vehicle and technology company, in consortium with Chartered Speed, a bus passenger mobility company, has received a Letter of Award (LOA) for the deployment of 9-meter and 12-meter electric buses across Rajasthan under the PM e-Bus Sewa Scheme. The LOA follows the issuance of a Letter of Confirmation of Quantity (LOCQ) by CESL for electric buses across India.

The deployment will cover eight cities: Jaipur, Kota, Udaipur, Ajmer, Alwar, Bikaner, Bhilwara, and Jodhpur. The order comprises 565 nine-meter and 110 twelve-meter electric buses, totaling 675. The initiative is part of efforts to reduce air pollution, decrease reliance on fossil fuels, and update public transport systems in the state.

Mr. Rohit Srivastava, Business Head & Chief Growth Officer, EKA Mobility, said, “This win reinforces our belief that electric mobility is not just the future—it’s the present. Rajasthan’s bold move toward electrification aligns perfectly with our vision of transforming the way millions commute daily and accelerating India’s transition to a cleaner, more sustainable future.”

​Mr. Sanyam Gandhi, Whole-Time Director, Chartered Speed, said, “This reflects our commitment to a greener, more efficient transport network. Through the Pradhan Mantri e-Bus Sewa Scheme, we’re transitioning to an electric fleet that will transform urban mobility. Our goal is to lead the shift to a low-carbon future and offer commuters cleaner, smarter travel options shaping a more connected and sustainable India.”

The Rajasthan order follows recent contracts secured by EKA from the Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (approximately ₹150 crore) and the Nagpur Municipal Corporation (approximately ₹400 crore).
