EV91 revs up Delhi streets with electric fleet and gender-first last-mile delivery push
MUMBAI: Delhi just got a jolt of clean energy, with wheels that mean business. Ev91technologies, one of India’s fastest-scaling electric mobility startups, officially rolled out its flagship electric two-wheeler operations fleet in the capital on 23 June 2025, setting its sights on both sustainable transport and urban employment equity.
The new centre in Delhi-NCR comes equipped with tools for real-time diagnostics, battery testing, servicing, and spare part replacements. The facility aims to offer dependable post-sales support for the startup’s growing fleet of electric vehicles and their delivery partners.
“Delhi is a crucial market for the EV transition, and this new centre is designed to support our customers with fast, reliable, and professional service. Our aim is to not only provide exceptional vehicles but also ensure an effortless post-sales experience that builds long-term trust”, said Ev91technologies founder & CEO Arun Kumar.
The leadership team—including Manoj Kumar (COO), Lalith Kumar (CBO), and Umesh S K (CFO)—brings a unified vision of cleaner roads and wider access to electric mobility across India. Their strategy includes not just asset deployment but creating livelihoods powered by green tech.
Industry partners present at the launch included Vaibhav Sarda from Stride, Rishabh Deo from Gogoro, Jyotir Jain from BizDateUp, and Partha Pratim from MotoVolt—signalling strong cross-sector alignment in finance, mobility, and startup innovation.
In a bold social impact move, EV91 is partnering with Zepto, Big Basket, Flipkart Minutes, and Apollo to provide two-wheelers on a rental model to gig workers unable to afford their own vehicles. The result? A scalable solution that helps riders earn while pushing India’s EV transition forward.
Women riders are firmly in focus too. EV91 is already collaborating with Rapido Pink to promote women-led fleet operations. The company plans to scale up to over 5,000 vehicles in the coming months, with 1,000 earmarked for female riders.
“Our commitment remains clear — to create dignified, green, and scalable employment for underserved women across urban India”, said Kumar.
From buzz to business, EV91Technologies appears to be wiring its growth model not just with batteries and bytes, but with purpose. Delhi, clearly, is only the first stop.

Adani Airport Holdings and Blinkit launch India’s first in-terminal quick commerce service at Mumbai’s Terminal 2
Passengers at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport can now order essentials on the Blinkit app and have them delivered within minutes
MUMBAI: Forget the overpriced airport shop. Travellers rushing through departures at Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport can now order essentials on their phones and have them delivered within minutes, right to their gate.
Adani Airport Holdings Limited, India’s largest private airport operator, has partnered with quick commerce platform Blinkit to launch what the two companies claim is India’s first in-terminal quick commerce service. The service is live at Terminal 2, domestic departures, and allows passengers to order through the Blinkit app for delivery anywhere within the terminal, including boarding gates, lounges, the food court and select partner outlets. Deliveries are handled by trained on-ground personnel, ensuring a seamless experience without disrupting travel timelines.
The product range covers travel accessories, electronics, snacks, books, baby care and personal essentials. Permissible liquids including packaged water, cold beverages and juices are sourced from approved in-terminal inventory, in line with airport security protocols.
An AAHL spokesperson said the initiative was part of a broader push to reimagine digital services at airports. “Bringing app-based convenience into the terminal allows passengers to make better use of their time and raises the overall service standard,” the spokesperson said, describing it as a step towards building “more responsive and passenger-centric airports.”
For Blinkit, the tie-up extends quick commerce into a high-frequency, high-intent environment. For AAHL, it reflects a strategic push to grow non-aeronautical revenue through digitally enabled retail, a increasingly important revenue stream for airport operators worldwide.
You are already late for your flight. At least now you do not have to be thirsty too.
