EV charging stations in Hyderabad

EV charging in Hyderabad

Hyderabad has a rapidly expanding charging network across the city and its IT corridor. Find the nearest working station below.

Hyderabad's charging network grew later than Bengaluru's but has expanded quickly, helped by Telangana's EV policy and TGSPDCL's support for public charging. The distribution is noticeably concentrated: the western IT corridor is well served by Tata Power, Statiq and ChargeZone installations tied to office campuses, malls and hotels, while the older city areas east of the Musi are comparatively thin. Several charging points sit within large mixed-use developments, which makes them reliable but means they follow mall timings rather than being available around the clock.

Where to find chargers in Hyderabad

The densest coverage runs through Gachibowli, HITEC City, Madhapur and Kondapur — the technology belt where most of the city's EV owners live and work. Banjara Hills and Jubilee Hills have chargers attached to hotels, restaurants and premium retail. Secunderabad and Begumpet serve the central and cantonment areas, Kukatpally covers the north-west, and LB Nagar anchors the south-eastern side. If you are travelling towards the airport, the Nehru Outer Ring Road corridor has picked up fast chargers at fuel stations along the route.

Use the search box above to jump straight to any of these areas — Gachibowli, HITEC City, Madhapur, Banjara Hills and more are listed, and you can also search any address or pincode in Hyderabad. Each station shows its operator, connector types, maximum power, last reported status and a directions link, so you can confirm a charger suits your vehicle before driving to it.

Charging an electric scooter or bike in Hyderabad

Two-wheelers are the largest EV segment in Hyderabad, and they charge differently from cars. An electric scooter draws far less power, so a standard 5A or 15A domestic socket is usually enough for an overnight charge — which is why most scooter owners rarely use public chargers at all. Where public charging matters is for riders who cannot charge where they park, and for delivery riders who need to top up mid-shift.

For those riders, three options exist in Hyderabad: AC points on the map above (many work for scooters with the right connector), Ather Grid fast-charging points aimed at two-wheelers, and battery swapping from networks such as Battery Smart, Bounce and Sun Mobility, which replace a drained pack in about two minutes rather than charging it. Swapping has grown fastest among gig riders precisely because downtime costs them income. If you ride for a living, see our guide to electric scooters for delivery riders and consider a model with a removable battery.

What charging costs in Hyderabad

Public charging is priced per unit of electricity. Expect roughly ₹15–25 per kWh at DC fast chargers and ₹8–15 at AC points, and note that advertised rates are usually exclusive of 18% GST — so a charger quoting ₹18/kWh actually bills around ₹21.24. Charging at home on a domestic tariff of ₹6–10 per unit is dramatically cheaper, which is why owners with home charging treat public networks as a top-up rather than a primary supply.

Driving out of Hyderabad: highway corridors

Hyderabad–Bengaluru on NH-44 has become reliably drivable with fast chargers at the main service points, and Hyderabad–Vijayawada along NH-65 has filled in well. Hyderabad–Nagpur northwards is improving but still has stretches worth planning around. The Outer Ring Road itself functions as a useful charging ring for anyone starting a long drive, since topping up on the ORR before joining a national highway removes the tightest leg of most journeys out of the city.

For any intercity drive, plan the whole corridor rather than searching city by city. The EV route planner maps your route, lists every charger along it in travel order with the gap between each one, and flags any stretch longer than your vehicle's real-world range — which is the number that actually decides whether a trip is comfortable.

Owning an EV in Hyderabad

Telangana's EV policy has focused on incentives for buyers and on encouraging charging infrastructure at commercial developments, and Hyderabad's relatively long commutes across a spread-out city make the running-cost saving significant for daily drivers. Home charging is more achievable here than in Mumbai, since a larger share of residents have dedicated parking, which shifts public charging towards a top-up and road-trip role rather than a primary one. The city's growing fleet and cab electrification, particularly around the IT corridor, is where daytime fast-charger demand concentrates.

Whether public charging is a convenience or a necessity depends largely on your parking. If you can charge at home overnight, public charging becomes a top-up and road-trip tool. If you park on the street or in a shared lot, weight charger availability near home and work heavily when choosing a vehicle, and consider a two-wheeler with a removable battery if that fits your use.

Checking whether a charger actually works

Across India a meaningful share of listed public chargers are non-functional at any given time, and Hyderabad is no exception — broken connectors, offline payment systems, blocked bays and unpowered units are all common. Every station on this map shows its last reported status, and EV owners can report what they find on arrival, so you see community evidence rather than only a database entry. If you use a charger here, taking a moment to report it working or not working makes the map more reliable for the next driver in Hyderabad.

Thinking of setting up a charging station in Hyderabad?

Charger demand in Hyderabad is growing faster than supply in several pockets, which is why a growing number of enquiries we receive are from site owners rather than drivers. If you have land, a shop, a fuel station or a parking facility in the city, our guide to setting up an EV charging station covers the investment, approvals, subsidies and site selection, and the ROI calculator models the payback for your specific numbers.
