‘‘Rational tax system soon to boost EVs’
Context:

Significance of this decision:
- The policy will help create a more ‘enabling’ environment for the sector besides providing stability that overseas investors seek.
What is electric vehicle?
- All electric vehicles run on electricity only. An electric vehicle uses one or more electric motors or traction motors for propulsion.
- An electric vehicle may be powered through a collector system by electricity from off-vehicle sources, or may be self-contained with a battery, solar panels or an electric generator to convert fuel to electricity.
- EVs include road and rail vehicles, surface and underwater vessels, and electric spacecraft.
