Fleet of electric scooters and gig riders offers zero-emission deliveries in highly polluted urban areas
Northern India’s suffocating, toxic air was a big factor in Akash Gupta’s decision to quit his decade-long climb up the corporate ladder and start a last-mile electric vehicle logistics company. Wanting to help pare back India’s noxious smog “was the biggest trigger for me”, he explains.
The company, based in the New Delhi satellite city of Gurugram, says annual revenue now stands at about $40mn and the business is operationally profitable. Still, India’s EV take-off has so far been sluggish, in part because combustion-engine vehicles remain much more affordable than their EV counterparts in a country where average incomes are relatively low. Infrastructure is also problematic, with just over 8,700 public charging stations in the world’s most populous nation.

CalMac CEO Steps Down Amid Fleet ChallengesThe chief executive of Caledonian MacBrayne (CalMac) is stepping down as it faces ongoing challenges with its fleet. The company announced on Wednesday that Robbie Drummond is stepping down with immediate effect. It comes just over a week after the chief executive of the state-owned shipyard Ferguson Marine David Tydeman was sacked by its board. Labour blamed the "chaos on CalMac services" on "the SNP’s woeful mismanagement of Scotland’s ferry fleet." Drummond’s departure comes after a review by the board of CalMac, which is also wholly owned by the Scottish Government. In recent years the ageing nature of CalMac’s ferry fleet has led to delays and disruption on its routes around the west coast of Scotland. These problems have been made worse by ongoing delays to two ferries being built at Ferguson Marine in Port Glasgow
