To understand this better, let us look at share of EVs as part of total sales in each category.

2. Electric share of three wheelers sales was 46% in FY22 vs 34% in FY21

And this trend will only increase, we can already see that in the shares for two wheelers and Car sales in March 2022.

Share of EVs in Two wheelers sales is 4.3% in March 2022 and share of EVs in Car sales is 1.1% in March 2022

My own crude projections for FY23 are as follows with regards to share of EVs of total sales.

Two wheelers: 7-9%
Cars: 2-3%
Three wheelers: 55-60%
