Abstract	India is rapidly transitioning toward electric mobility to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, fuel imports, and urban air pollution. However, widespread EV adoption continues to be limited by inadequate charging infrastructure, high battery costs, grid limitations, and range anxiety. This paper presents an updated overview of the current status of EV charging in India, including state-wise charging station distribution, charging standards, PPP participation models, battery swapping networks, and availability of digital location services. A comprehensive review of challenges and future opportunities is also discussed. The study concludes that fast expansion of public charging stations, battery swapping networks, and renewable grid integration are essential to support India’s projected EV market growth by 2030.
