Figures in the report linked by the CMO put incentive applications at 7,782 up to October 8. Purchase incentives accounted for ₹7.61 crore paid to 2,707 beneficiaries, while ₹29.50 lakh was disbursed to 79 beneficiaries under the scrapping component.
Two-wheelers accounted for 7,706 applications, including 116 for scrapping incentives. The remaining applications comprised six for N1-category trucks weighing up to 3.5 tonnes, including one under the scrapping category, and 70 for electric-car scrapping incentives.
Within the scrapping payments, 55 two-wheeler beneficiaries received ₹5.50 lakh in total. Another 24 beneficiaries in the four-wheeler category received ₹24 lakh.
The policy provides purchase incentives to encourage electric-vehicle adoption and scrapping incentives for eligible older vehicles when a new EV is bought. The CMO said the transition would help improve the capital’s air quality.
