At ₹3-4 lakh, EV charging shifts from purely light-EV territory into your first genuine DC charging capability — a meaningful jump from the AC-only setups in the lower brackets. This is the bracket where an entry-level 30kW CCS2 charger becomes viable, provided you already have access to a three-phase, power-ready site. That single change opens the door to a different class of customer: EV car dealerships, cab-fleet operators, and commercial campuses that specifically need DC charging speed, not just AC top-ups.
This range also supports larger-scale versions of the setups possible at lower budgets. A large e-rickshaw charging yard here can run 25-35 bays instead of 15-25, and a four-bay public AC station adds the load-balancing panel and CMS software needed to serve office buildings, malls, and hospitals reliably rather than informally.
For entrepreneurs coming from the delivery and logistics side, this is also where a fleet-depot charging contractor model becomes genuinely attractive — servicing grocery-delivery, food-delivery, and e-commerce fleets with dedicated smart charging points and monthly billing, rather than one-off installations.
The common thread across this bracket is that you're no longer just serving individual vehicle owners passing through — you're beginning to serve businesses with recurring, predictable charging needs. Before finalising a configuration, weigh whether your site can genuinely support three-phase power for a DC charger, since that single infrastructure requirement is what separates this tier from the bracket below it.
Explore the five setups below to compare configurations, target customers, and manufacturers to approach.
India has millions of EVs on the road and fewer than 25,000 public charging points. The gap is massive — and growing. My EV Charger connects serious buyers with verified manufacturers and CPOs to accelerate every deployment across India.
