EV charging stations in Mumbai

EV charging in Mumbai

Mumbai's charging network is expanding quickly, with public and fast-charging points across the city and along the Mumbai–Pune corridor. Find a working charger near you below.

Mumbai's charging network reflects the city's geography: long, narrow and concentrated along the two north–south corridors. Tata Power has the deepest footprint here, unsurprising given its distribution presence in the city, with Statiq, ChargeZone and Zeon adding fast chargers at commercial sites. Adani Electricity and BEST areas have seen public charging attached to substations and depots. Space is the constraint that shapes everything — land is expensive and parking is scarce, so chargers tend to sit inside paid parking structures, malls and office towers rather than on open plots.

Charging stations by city in the region

Mumbai sits within Delhi NCR. If you drive across the region, these neighbouring city pages carry their own station lists: EV charging stations in Pune.

Where to find chargers in Mumbai

The reliable clusters are in the western suburbs and the newer business districts. Andheri, Powai and Malad carry a good spread of both AC and DC points tied to office parks and malls; Bandra and Lower Parel have chargers within paid parking and hotel complexes. South Mumbai around Colaba and Nariman Point is thinner but improving. Navi Mumbai, particularly around Vashi and the Belapur business area, has become a genuinely well-served pocket with more open land for DC installations, and Thane sits on the corridor out of the city with growing highway-adjacent capacity.

Use the search box above to jump straight to any of these areas — Andheri, Bandra, Powai, Thane and more are listed, and you can also search any address or pincode in Mumbai. 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 Mumbai

Two-wheelers are the largest EV segment in Mumbai, 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 Mumbai: 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 Mumbai

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 Mumbai: highway corridors

The Mumbai–Pune Expressway is the most heavily used EV corridor in western India and among the best equipped, with fast chargers at the major food plazas making the run comfortable in almost any modern EV. Mumbai–Nashik and Mumbai–Surat along NH-48 have filled in over the last two years. The coastal routes towards Alibaug and the Konkan remain the thin patches, where planning a charge before leaving the metropolitan area is still the safe approach.

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 Mumbai

Maharashtra's EV policy has supported both purchase incentives and charging infrastructure targets, and Mumbai's combination of short average commutes and very high fuel costs makes the running-cost case for an EV particularly strong here. The city's defining ownership challenge is home charging: a large proportion of residents park in shared society lots or on the street, so public and workplace charging carry more of the load in Mumbai than in most Indian cities. For two-wheeler owners, removable-battery scooters have become popular for exactly this reason.

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 Mumbai 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 Mumbai.

Thinking of setting up a charging station in Mumbai?

Charger demand in Mumbai 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.
