| Summary: Haryana's electric two-wheeler buyers can stack state subsidy, central incentive, road tax waiver, and registration fee relief to save up to ₹35,000 or more on a single purchase in 2026. |
India registered over 14 lakh electric two-wheelers in FY26, a 22% jump over the previous year. States layering their own incentives on top of the central PM E-DRIVE scheme are driving much of that surge.
Haryana is a strong example. Between the state EV Policy 2022, a recently enhanced 100% road tax exemption, and the PM E-DRIVE subsidy now extended until March 2028, buyers in Gurugram, Faridabad, and other Haryana cities have multiple financial levers working in their favour. VIDA, powered by Hero MotoCorp, qualifies for every one of these benefits across its full lineup of VIDA electric scooters. Here's a detailed breakdown of the EV subsidy in Haryana.
Haryana EV Policy 2026: What Electric Two-Wheeler Buyers Need to Know
The Haryana Electric Vehicle Policy 2022, notified on July 8, 2022, remains active through July 2027. For two-wheeler buyers, it offers a per-kWh state subsidy, a road tax exemption (recently upgraded from 20% to 100%), a reduced registration fee, and a state toll tax exemption that benefits riders on the Gurugram-Delhi corridor. All these stack on top of the central PM E-DRIVE scheme.

Financial Breakdown
Haryana two-wheeler buyers can combine four incentive layers into a single savings stack.
| Incentive Layer | Benefit for Electric Two-Wheelers |
|---|---|
| Haryana state subsidy | ₹5,000 per kWh of battery capacity, up to ₹30,000 |
| PM E-DRIVE (central) | ₹2,500 per kWh, capped at ₹5,000 per vehicle |
| Road tax (MVT) exemption | 100% waiver on pure EVs up to ₹30 lakh ex-showroom |
| Registration fee | Nominal ₹200 token fee (vs. ₹1,500–3,000 for conventional two-wheelers) |
For a 3.4 kWh scooter, the combined subsidy alone (state + central) reaches ₹22,000, before road tax and registration savings.
Haryana State EV Subsidy for Electric Scooters: Eligibility
and Amount Details
Haryana's state subsidy for electric two-wheelers is calculated at ₹5,000 per kWh of battery capacity, with a ceiling of ₹30,000 per vehicle. The subsidy is applied at the point of purchase, so the dealer deducts the amount from your invoice.
Eligibility conditions to keep in mind:
- Residency: The buyer must be a Haryana resident, and the vehicle must be registered in Haryana.
- Battery type: Only vehicles with advanced lithium-ion batteries qualify.
- Quota: The policy targets the first 30,000 electric two-wheelers. Confirm the current quota status with your dealer before purchase.
- Policy window: Valid through July 2027 or until target numbers are reached, whichever comes first.
Higher battery capacity directly translates to a higher subsidy. A 3.94 kWh scooter earns ₹19,700 in state subsidy, while a 2.2 kWh model gets ₹11,000.
PM E-DRIVE Scheme for Electric Scooters in Haryana:
Central Government Incentive
The PM E-DRIVE scheme, launched in October 2024 with a total outlay now raised to ₹11,900 crore, provides a demand incentive for electric two-wheelers priced under ₹1.5 lakh (ex-factory). The current rate is ₹2,500 per kWh of battery capacity, capped at ₹5,000 per vehicle or 15% of the ex-factory price, whichever is lower.
The two-wheeler subsidy window was recently extended from July 2026 to March 31, 2028, though the scheme remains fund-limited and could close earlier if the allocation is exhausted. Application happens instantly at the dealership through Aadhaar-based e-KYC. The subsidy is deducted from your invoice, and buyers looking to save on EV subsidies do not need to file a separate claim.
Registration Fee Waiver and Road Tax Benefits in Haryana
On July 29, 2026, the Haryana Cabinet approved a 100% Motor Vehicle Tax exemption for new pure EVs priced up to ₹30 lakh ex-showroom, as part of the 2026-27 Budget. This replaces the earlier 20% rebate.
Registration fees for electric two-wheelers are reduced to a nominal ₹200 under the 2022 policy, compared to ₹1,500–3,000 for conventional two-wheelers. The state toll tax exemption adds recurring savings for daily commuters on toll routes around Gurugram and Faridabad.
How Much Subsidy You Get on VIDA Electric Scooters:
Model-Wise Breakdown
VIDA EVooters use removable lithium-ion batteries, which meet the PM E-DRIVE battery requirement. Eligibility also depends on the model's ex-factory price falling within the scheme's ₹1.5 lakh cap, so confirm your chosen variant's qualification with the dealer at the time of purchase. Here's how the savings break down by model.
| Model | Battery | Haryana Subsidy | PM E-DRIVE | Combined Subsidy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VIDA V2 Pro | 3.94 kWh | ₹19,700 | ₹5,000 | ₹24,700 |
| VIDA V2 Plus | 3.44 kWh | ₹17,200 | ₹5,000 | ₹22,200 |
| VIDA VX2 Plus | 3.4 kWh | ₹17,000 | ₹5,000 | ₹22,000 |
| VIDA VX2 Go 3.4 kWh | 3.4 kWh | ₹17,000 | ₹5,000 | ₹22,000 |
| VIDA VX2 Go | 2.2 kWh | ₹11,000 | ₹5,000 | ₹16,000 |
Haryana subsidy is calculated at ₹5,000 per kWh of battery capacity. PM E-DRIVE is ₹2,500 per kWh, capped at ₹5,000. Combined subsidy totals are the sum of both. These figures are before road tax and registration savings, which add further to the effective reduction.
Note: Subsidy amounts are indicative, calculated per current policy rates. Confirm final amounts with your dealer at the time of purchase.
How to Apply for EV Subsidy in Haryana: Step-by-Step
Process
The application process differs for the central and state components.
PM E-DRIVE (central subsidy):
The PM E-DRIVE subsidy is applied automatically at the dealership. The dealer initiates Aadhaar-based e-KYC on the PM E-DRIVE portal, generates an e-voucher linked to your registered mobile number, and deducts the subsidy from your invoice. You sign the e-voucher at the dealership. No post-purchase paperwork is needed from your side.
Haryana state subsidy:
The state subsidy requires an online application through the Department of Industries and Commerce, Haryana portal within 45 days of vehicle registration.
- Register online with your personal and vehicle details on the state portal.
- Upload documents including Aadhaar, vehicle RC, purchase invoice, and bank account details.
- Await verification by the Directorate of Industries and Commerce, Haryana.
- Receive disbursement via direct benefit transfer (DBT) to your linked bank account.
Buyers who can charge at any 5A socket at home or work face no infrastructure wait while the application is processed.
Required Documents for Haryana EV Subsidy Application
Prepare the following before applying for the Haryana state EV subsidy:
- Aadhaar card linked to an active mobile number (required for both PM E-DRIVE e-KYC and state application).
- Vehicle RC showing Haryana registration.
- Purchase invoice with GST details and dealer declaration.
- Bank account details (passbook or cancelled cheque) for DBT, matching the Aadhaar-linked name.
- Proof of Haryana residency if the Aadhaar address differs from current residence.
Double-check each document for clarity and accuracy before uploading. Blurred scans, Aadhaar-mobile mismatch, and out-of-state RCs are the most common rejection triggers.
Haryana vs Neighbouring States: How Does the EV Subsidy
Compare?
Haryana's per-kWh subsidy rate and road tax exemption hold up well against neighbouring states.
| Parameter | Haryana | Delhi | Rajasthan |
|---|---|---|---|
| State subsidy (two-wheelers) | ₹5,000/kWh, up to ₹30,000 | ₹5,000/kWh, up to ₹30,000 | Varies by notification |
| Road tax exemption | 100% (EVs up to ₹30 lakh) | Exempted under Delhi EV Policy | Partial exemption |
| Registration fee | ₹200 nominal | Waived | Reduced |
| Policy valid through | July 2027 | Subject to renewal | Subject to renewal |
Haryana's NCR location also gives Gurugram and Faridabad buyers access to dealerships and ownership benefits spanning both Haryana and Delhi, with the added state toll tax exemption for cross-border commuters.
| Did you know? A Haryana buyer purchasing an electric scooter with a 3.4 kWh battery can save over ₹22,000 in combined subsidies alone, before factoring in road tax and registration relief. Add the lower electricity-based running costs of an electric scooter over three years, and the total ownership advantage extends well beyond the purchase-day savings. |
Common Issues with EV Subsidy Applications in Haryana
(And How to Avoid Them)
Applications can stall even with clear policies. The most common issues and their fixes:
- Aadhaar-mobile mismatch: Link your Aadhaar to your current mobile number before visiting the dealership. PM E-DRIVE e-KYC fails without this.
- Out-of-state registration: The vehicle must be registered in Haryana. Complete re-registration before applying if relocating from another state.
- Missing dealer declaration: Some state applications require a dealer stamp or certificate. Confirm at the time of purchase.
- Bank account mismatch: The DBT account must match the Aadhaar-linked name. Joint or third-party accounts are typically not accepted.
- Missed deadline: The state portal requires submission within 45 days of vehicle registration. Missing this window forfeits the state subsidy.
- Fund exhaustion: Both PM E-DRIVE and Haryana's quota-based incentives are fund- limited. Delays could reduce available benefits.
