JBM Auto Limited emerged as the leading player in India's electric bus market in May 2026, registering 157 electric buses on the government's Vahan portal. The performance helped the company increase its market share to 49%, up significantly from 33% in April 2026.
The achievement further strengthens JBM Auto's market leadership position, which it has maintained since the previous financial year. Industry analysts noted that May's registration figures were influenced by the inclusion of Telangana's vehicle registration data on the Vahan portal for the first time, providing a more comprehensive view of the national electric bus market and contributing to higher reported industry volumes.
JBM Auto stated that it operates the world's largest dedicated integrated electric bus manufacturing facility outside China. Located in the National Capital Region (NCR), the plant has an annual production capacity of 20,000 buses.
According to the company, its electric bus fleet has collectively travelled more than 400 million kilometres, transported over one billion passengers, and helped avoid more than one billion kilograms of CO₂ emissions to date.
The company attributed its strong performance to its advanced manufacturing capabilities and high-strength, lightweight electric bus platforms, which are designed to meet the needs of urban and intercity public transportation. JBM Auto said it remains focused on expanding electric mobility solutions at scale by leveraging global technologies and innovation.
