EV skills in Chandigarh
Chandigarh's EV policy and electric buses
Working on an electric car's high-voltage system
The Chandigarh Electric Vehicle Policy 2022 came into force in September 2022 for five years. In 2023 the administration paused registrations of non-electric two-wheelers several times to meet its targets. After objections from dealers and buyers, it removed that cap in November 2023 and shifted its focus to charging and incentives.
Uptake has been slower than planned. In the 2023-24 financial year to mid-November, EVs were about 7% of two-wheeler registrations and about 3% of cars, and the EV target was cut from 25% to 15%. Buses are moving faster: as of August 2024 the city ran 80 electric buses and aimed to replace its roughly 350 diesel CTU buses by 2027-28.
The registration cap
Chandigarh halted non-EV two-wheeler registrations for set periods in 2023, then lifted the cap in November 2023.
Electric buses only
The policy says new bus purchases and replacements will be electric.
Diesel saved
The city's 80 e-buses had covered 1.26 crore km by August 2024, saving about 25 lakh litres of diesel.

Studying from Chandigarh
How the training works
1. Enrol online
Apply from Chandigarh; our admissions team confirms the fees, EMI options and your batch dates.
2. Learn live and on demand
Join live classes with EV engineers, then go back to recorded lessons, notes and quizzes whenever you need them.
3. Build and simulate
Work through design calculations, simulations and projects. An optional DIY hardware kit lets you practise on a real control board at home, delivered anywhere in India.
4. Train hands-on at a DIYguru centre
The CEVT and PG programmes include hands-on workshops at our Delhi and Pune centres: batteries, motors, controllers, charging and diagnostics on real vehicles. Nearest to Chandigarh: Delhi (Sultanpur).
5. Get certified
Finish the projects and assessments to earn your certificate, with a verification link you can share with employers.
Certificates
Certificates and EV work rules in India
Chandigarh has no licence for EV technicians, and India has no national one. ASDC's NSQF EV job roles are the main skills benchmark. Charger wiring is electrical work covered by the Central Electricity Authority's safety regulations, so it must be done by licensed electrical staff. Our certificate shows you completed the training and is not a licence.
FAQs
EV training in Chandigarh: common questions
Is there an EV training institute in Chandigarh with a lab?
We do not have a centre in Chandigarh. Hands-on workshops run at DIYguru centres in Delhi and Pune, and the rest of the course is online.
Can I do the EV course while studying at a college in Mohali?
Yes. Live classes are recorded and most work is project-based, so it fits around lectures and exams.
Which programme suits a B.Tech graduate versus a working engineer?
Recent B.Tech graduates often choose the 12-month PG programme. Working engineers usually take a shorter programme or a Nanodegree in their area.
Will the certificate help with EV jobs?
It is proof of focused EV training and project work, which supports your CV. It is not a licence and is not a job guarantee.
What are the fees?
Fees are shown in INR on each programme page. The admissions team shares the current amount and any EMI plans.
How long does an electric vehicle course take?
Professional Certification Programmes run for about 3 months, the CEVT technician programme 3 months, Advanced Nanodegrees 6 months and the Post Graduate programme 12 months.
Is there EV training near me in Chandigarh?
The theory is taught live online, so you can join from anywhere in Chandigarh. Hands-on workshops run at our training centres in Delhi (Sultanpur) and Pune; the nearest to Chandigarh is Delhi (Sultanpur).
Is there an EV mechanic course in Chandigarh?
Yes. The CEVT programme is built for ITI, diploma and polytechnic learners and working mechanics: EV batteries, motors, controllers, charging and diagnostics for two- and four-wheelers, with a 21-day hands-on workshop at our Delhi or Pune centre.
