Delhi-NCR Delivery Fleets Get Extension for BS-VI Petrol Two-Wheelers Amid EV Adoption Challenges

The Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) has temporarily allowed delivery fleets in Delhi-NCR to add BS-VI petrol two-wheelers until December 31, 2026. This modifies a previous ban set for January 1, 2026, which aimed to phase out diesel and petrol vehicles in favor of EVs and CNG. The CAQM cited slow EV adoption among gig workers as a reason for the one-year extension, acknowledging challenges in meeting EV targets and requests for a smoother transition.
