JSW Group has launched AMPSTAR, its new electric commercial vehicle brand targeting India’s bus and heavy-truck markets. Backed by a ₹2,500 crore investment, 15,000-unit annual manufacturing capacity and plans for buses, a 55-tonne electric tractor-trailer, leasing and BaaS, AMPSTAR marks JSW’s push into large-scale commercial EV mobility.

India’s new EV localisation requirements have taken effect from September 1, 2026, bringing stricter domestic manufacturing norms for traction motors used in electric buses and trucks under PM E-DRIVE.
