Nomura Identifies Key Stocks as EV Adoption Accelerates in India
Nomura reports that electric vehicle (EV) adoption in India is at an inflection point, driven by improved economics, better product options, and supportive government policies. EV penetration in passenger vehicles rose to 7.9% by September 2026 from 4% in FY26, while two-wheeler EV penetration increased to 11.6% from 6.5%. States like Delhi, Telangana, Odisha, Karnataka, and Goa lead adoption. Nomura highlights reduced breakeven periods for EV ownership and identifies key stocks, including Ather Energy, Mahindra Mahindra, Hyundai, Tata Motors, Sona BLW, and Exide Industries, poised to benefit from this shift.
