EaseMyTrip, through its subsidiaries YoloBus and Easy Green Mobility, has secured a significant achievement by winning Madhya Pradesh’s first-ever inter-city electric bus tender, issued by Sagar City Transport Services Limited (SCTSL). This milestone marks a crucial step in the state’s transition to sustainable public transit, with EaseMyTrip’s YoloBus set to operate the electric buses, while Easy Green Mobility will manufacture them. The move addresses the ongoing challenge of limited electric bus availability in the face of high demand, aligning perfectly with Madhya Pradesh’s ambitious goals for environmentally friendly transportation.
The first batch of state-of-the-art electric buses is set to roll out in August 2025. These buses will combine advanced technology with high passenger comfort, ensuring a seamless and eco-friendly travel experience for commuters.
Rikant Pittie, CEO and Co-Founder of EaseMyTrip, highlighted the significance of this move, saying, “Our foray into in-house electric bus manufacturing is driven by the growing demand we’ve seen through YoloBus. With a market where demand outpaces supply, we recognized the need for a strategic shift. The electric vehicle market, valued at USD 331.9 million in 2024, is projected to grow at a robust CAGR of 18.2%. This expansion is supported by strong government initiatives like the PM E-Drive and state-level policies, offering an excellent opportunity to localize production and contribute to the ‘Make-in-India’ movement. With our new subsidiary, Easy Green Mobility, and an investment of INR 200 crore, we are committed to revolutionizing sustainable transit in India and expanding our footprint in the rapidly growing EV sector.”
Manoj Soni, CEO of Easy Green Mobility, expressed enthusiasm about the project: “We are excited to partner with SCTSL and the Madhya Pradesh government to drive sustainable mobility forward. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to a greener future. By rolling out these advanced electric buses through YoloBus, we aim to provide eco-friendly, comfortable, and efficient travel options to the people of Madhya Pradesh. Our partnership not only supports the ‘Make in India’ vision but also enhances public transit while promoting innovative mobility solutions.”
YoloBus, a key player in India’s intercity travel, is already redefining the experience across 250+ routes. Known for its focus on comfort, sustainability, and efficiency, YoloBus is deploying cutting-edge electric buses that offer zero-carbon emissions, minimal noise pollution, and state-of-the-art technology. Features include real-time tracking, sanitized cabins, onboard entertainment, and punctual departures. With the introduction of electric buses, YoloBus plans to expand to over 400 routes by the end of the year, aiming for exponential growth in the coming years.
The integration of electric buses into YoloBus’s network represents a significant leap forward for EaseMyTrip’s ‘Make in India’ vision, further solidifying its leadership in India’s electric vehicle revolution. This initiative not only advances sustainable mobility but also sets a new benchmark in the country’s transport ecosystem, enhancing mobility for both tourists and daily commuters while fostering a cleaner, more efficient transit future.
