In
June, the Department of Heavy Industry (DHI) had modified FAME II and increased
the demand incentive for electric two-wheelers (e2W) to Rs 15,000 per kwh from
the earlier uniform subsidy of Rs 10,000 per kwh for all EVs. Besides, it had
also capped incentives for e2W at 40 per cent of the cost of vehicles, up from
20 per cent earlier. “The introduction of Omega Seiki Mobility electric
scooters will support the Indian government’s goal new electric vehicles, while
also helping the public sector become carbon neutral,” added Narang.
In
line with its strategy to expand its retail footprint across key towns and
cities in India, Omega Seiki Mobility also launched its first flagship showroom
in Pune. Omega Seiki Mobility flagship showroom is essentially an interactive
space having tech gadgets (Tablets) which offers customers an opportunity to
learn about the vehicle and its features.
While
launching the first flagship showroom of OSM, Narang said, “The awareness and
acceptance of EVs in Maharashtra is high and with the FAME II revision and
subsidy by the Maharashtra government, the adoption rate of EVs will further
increase in the coming months. Hence, we have launched our first flagship store
in Pune. Omega Seiki Mobility currently have 15 showrooms panIndia and we are
planning to expand to 115 showrooms by end of 2021. We will also be launching
10 flagships stores in the current year”.
