Olectra Greentech Rolls Out 35 AC Electric Buses in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: CM Fadnavis Inaugurates Fleet, Passenger Services Begin 2 November

Olectra Greentech has put 35 air-conditioned, 9 metre electric buses on the road in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar. Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis inaugurated the fleet on 1 November 2026 at the Divisional Sports Complex, and Evey Trans started passenger services on 2 November 2026. The buses run on blade battery technology and support the Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Municipal Corporation’s push to modernise city transport. Routes, fares, battery capacity and range have not been disclosed so far.

Olectra Greentech, which describes itself as India’s largest electric commercial vehicle manufacturer, says the 35 buses were formally inaugurated by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on 1 November 2026. The ceremony was held at the Divisional Sports Complex in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar.

The buses are meant to support the Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Municipal Corporation’s efforts to modernise the city’s public transport network. Passenger services were scheduled to begin on 2 November 2026 across various routes in the city.

Olectra Managing Director Mahesh Babu said the company has 4,500+ electric buses on the road across more than 55 cities, covering over 750 million green kilometres. He thanked the Government of Maharashtra and the municipal corporation for their continued trust and support.

Olectra has shared a feature list but no numbers for battery size, range or charging time. Here is what the company has confirmed.

Not disclosed: battery capacity, claimed range, charging time, seating capacity, route list, fares and contract value.

The buses will be operated by Evey Trans , according to Olectra’s statement. Reports on earlier Olectra deployments describe Evey Trans as a MEIL Group company that runs electric buses under long-term gross cost contracts, where the operator handles drivers, maintenance and charging while the transport body keeps scheduling and fare collection.
