Magenta EV Charging points are presently available in almost 34 cities and on many State and National roads under various business models and market niches, beginning with installing the first chargers in Mumbai. Magenta intends to build a network of 4800 charging stations around the country to convert entire roadway segments into e-highways. This move will support the government initiative of setting up 400,000 charging stations to meet the requirement for two million Electric Vehicles (EV) that could potentially ply on its roads by 2026.

Some of the recent developments at Magenta include installing Public EV Charging station in collaboration with Central Railways alongside Parel, Dadar and Byculla Railway Stations.
