One third population of our country is depended on the agriculture business directly or indirectly and hence it is proven that we are an agriculture country. Having more than 30.02%1 contribution in GDP, agriculture plays the significant role in Indian economy. In last two decades everything is being converted into digital platforms globally. All industries became the digital and adopted paperless transactions. Following the same way in marketing, organizations started selling their product on e-commerce platforms. Promotion activities have started in social media like e-mail, websites, messages etc. Being understood the convenience, effectiveness and efficiency of digitalization Indian Government also launched “Digital India” scheme under which Government is promoting the use of technology in organizational function. Even though it seems somewhat inconvenient to use these types of technologies in unorganized sectors like agriculture, Government of India has announced in its “Union Budget 2016-2017 central Government stated that, the Unified Agricultural marketing e-platform will be launched for wholesale markets in India and 100% FDI to be allowed through FIPB route in marketing of food Products produced and manufactured in India. Considering these changes are going to affect the marketing and trading of agricultural products tremendously, this study is initiating the discussion regarding the possibilities of the digitalization in agricultural business.

The study sought to determine the extent to which the usage of social media in the marketing of agricultural products in South West Nigeria can enhance farmers turnover. It employed the survey research design to collect data with the help of a structured questionnaire to elicit information from respondents selected from six 6 south western states. Research data were analysed using structural equation modelling. The results showed that the use of social media WhatsApp and Facebook in marketing of agricultural products significantly enhances farmers turnover. The managerial implication is that use of Whatsapp and Facebook in the marketing of agricultural products for the enhancement of farmers’ turnover was found to have significant influence on the enhancement in farmers’ turnover from agricultural products. Policy makers in government should provide the enabling environment for the telecommunication companies to enhance their reach by installing their facilities across the length and breadth of the country so that the network coverage will be strong at all times so that the benefits of social media usage will not be constrained.

Rice Value Chain Analysis: Rice Seed Production as a Profitable Agribusiness ...IJAEMSJORNAL
This study explored the rice value chain (RVC) in Nueva Ecija, value additions, found restrictions, and offered to upgrade solutions to improve the competitiveness of the rice industry and specific segments in the RVC using the value chain analysis (VCA) methodology. Farmers, paddy dealers, millers, wholesalers, wholesaler-retailers, and retailers in Nueva Ecija provided primary data. Workshops with stakeholders were also held to validate preliminary findings and identify upgrading strategies. The RVC begins with the provision of inputs for paddy production and concludes with the consumption of milled rice. The RVC is dominated by a traditional multi-layered supply chain with interconnected chain actors consisting of competing farmers, paddy traders, millers, and rice traders in each segment and, frequently, with the involvement of brokers in both paddy aggregation and rice distribution, thereby increasing marketing cost. The major constraints identified in the RVC included high production and marketing costs of paddy and rice due to low yield, high labor and material inputs, and a lack of critical infrastructure and market facilities (e.g., modern mills, dryers, cheap transport, and energy), resulting in high domestic paddy and rice prices and low competitiveness of the entire rice VC. To improve competitiveness, the rice industry should focus on developing and promoting yield-increasing, postharvest loss-reducing, and cost-cutting technologies, as well as those that improve overall RVC efficiency, such as investments in enabling infrastructure and facilities for transport, handling, storage, drying, and milling.

I realize that this book will create a great deal of controversy. It has never been easy to challenge the
consensus because the System – of any kind, in any context – will try to preserve the status quo, by
all means possible. .Hopefully, this account will raise the level of awareness among the general public
and initiate the discussion that, in turn, may entail major cultural changes, as well as a revision of the
consumer basket. This book can be read on two different levels. First, it may be read by ordinary
people with a limited, if any, scientific background. Throughout, the book has been written with this
audience in mind. I hope that you won’t be easily discouraged. Even if the chemical content of a given
chapter is hard to understand, the scientific evidence presented, the citations from original
documents, conclusions drawn, and recommendations made can be easily comprehended.
Represented by professionals from academia, and government agencies, as well as consumer
protection and advocacy groups. I do not expect everybody in the scientific community to agree with
the content and ideas put forth in this book. But I do hope that the information and knowledge
presented will become a wake-up call for the general public, regulatory agencies, legislators, business
leaders, and scientists coming to the realization.

troubles related to procurement operations and transportation. On line purchases from tier-2 and
tier-3 cities are predicted to significantly growth, thanks to the emergence of low price
smartphones. But, negative remaining mile connectivity should act as a deterrent. Preserving
control on logistics and on ground fleet control, particularly courier corporations, is critical for
growth.
5) Payments and Transactions
India is still a coins-based totally society because of restrained banking and credit card penetration.
This, mixed with a loss of consumer trust in on-line merchants, has forced organizations to offer
cod offerings, which imposes large financial price for firms within the form of labor, coins coping
with and better returns of bought gadgets.
Statistics protection and the integrity of the gadget that handles the data and transactions are

OPERATIONAL FRAMEWORK
Enterprise models have been evolving unexpectedly in the e-trade sector largely because of
heightened opposition and the incapability of players to preserve high costs. Corporations in e-
trade will want to evolve and innovate continuously to sustain their organizations. Furthermore,
several of those corporations entered into the e-commerce enterprise as startups and have grown
to a big length aided by way of the non-stop increase within the marketplace but lack properly
defined abilities and organizational structure. Machine building, financial and talent control

In the us, 75% of customers have stated that they'll generally transfer between brands, and for the
rest of the arena, this rate is 60%, consistent with ecommerce foundation. This shows corporations
have to continuously paintings on their brand positioning.

Its miles concluded that how net primarily based e-trade will rework agribusiness continues to be
indeterminate. Supply chains can also become extra green. Stronger connection between producers
and consumers may additionally bring about extra differentiated products that meet patron needs.
E-commerce offers an opportunity venue of selling and advertising agricultural merchandise that
has a benefit of reaching great geographical populations and imparting exact product facts at a
pretty low value. Markets may grow to be more obvious. As the net transcends geography the
globalization of the world may additionally grow to be a truth. Transformation is about alternate
and alternate creates winners and losers. The winners may be the fast innovators nice serving
customer’s wishes. The losers are probably to be the ones unwilling to trap this powerful
technological tool and undertake the fashion. As Charles Darwin says, “it’s now not the most
powerful of the species that survives, nor the maximum shrewd; its miles the one maximum
adaptable to exchange”.

An airline alliance is an aviation industry
arrangement between two or more airlines
agreeing to cooperate on a substantial level.
Alliances may provide marketing branding
to facilitate travelers making inter-airline
codeshare connections within countries.
This branding may involve unified aircraft
liveries of member aircraft. In 2015, Star
Alliance was the largest with 23% of total
scheduled traffic in Revenue passenger kilometres (RPKs)/revenue passenger miles (RPMs),
followed by SkyTeam with 20.4% and Oneworld with 17.8%, leaving 38.8% for others. In 2019,
by number of passengers, Star Alliance was leading 762 million, followed by SkyTeam (630
million) and Oneworld (535 million).
The first airline alliance was formed in the 1930s, when Panair do Brasil and its parent company
Pan American World Airways agreed to exchange routes to Latin America. In 1990, the African
Joint Air Services (AJAS) Accord between Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia led to the launch of
Alliance Air in 1994, with South African Airways, Air Tanzania, Uganda Airlines and the
governments of Uganda and Tanzania as shareholders.
The first large alliance began in 1989, when Northwest Airlines and KLM agreed to large-scale
codesharing. In 1992, the Netherlands signed the first open skies agreement with the United States,
in spite of objections from the European Union, which gave both countries unrestricted landing
rights on the other's soil. Normally landing rights are granted for a fixed number of flights per
week to a fixed destination. Each adjustment requires negotiations, often between governments
rather than between the companies involved. In return, the United States granted antitrust
immunity to the alliance between Northwest Airlines and KLM.
Other alliances would struggle for years to overcome the transnational barriers and lack of
antitrust immunity, and still do so. On May 14, 1997, an agreement was announced forming the
Star Alliance with five airlines on three continents: United Airlines, Scandinavian Airlines, Thai
Airways International, Air Canada, and Lufthansa.The alliance chose Young & Rubicam for

advertising, with a budget of $25 million (€18 million).which brought competing airlines to form
Oneworld in 1999 and SkyTeam in 2000.
In 2010 Richard Branson, chairman of the Virgin Group, announced his intention to form a fourth
alliance among Virgin branded airlines (Virgin Atlantic; Virgin America; and the Virgin Australia
Holdings group of airlines).Then in September 2011, Branson said that Virgin Atlantic would join
one of the existing alliances;this idea was repeated in October 2012. In December 2012, Delta Air
Lines purchased Singapore Airlines' 49% stake in Virgin Atlantic for £224 million.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Gilbert and Wong (2003) have compared and measured the differences in expectations of
passengers’ of airline service quality on the factors like Assurance, Facilities, Reliability and Flight
Patterns, Employees, Responsiveness dimensions and Customization. Other researchers have
analyzed the relationship between behavioral loyalty, passenger satisfaction, and airline service
quality, (Ostrowski & O’Brien, 1993; Chan, 2000).
Etherington and Var 1984 and Furrer, Liu, and Sudharshan 2000 have studied the relationships
between airline service and service quality. Crespo-Almendros & Del Barrio-García, 2016) found
that, while purchasing any airline ticket discounts are the major contributors for online buyers
while accommodation is vital for expert users.
Alireza Aghighi, 2015 found that sale promotion also adds to the sales of airline ticket but the
attitude and behaviour of the customer should be borne in mind. A study conducted on the online
buying behaviors clearly indicated.
OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
After many private players in the airline industry the present focus is that how can AMERICAN
improve passenger experience and satisfaction to improve sales. Over the past few years, market
share, passenger satisfaction and operating revenue of AMERICAN has declined drastically.
Objective of the study is to identify the underlying causes of passenger dissatisfaction and evaluate
the causal relationship between those factors and airline choice. The primary aim is to identify the
factors responsible for low sales of AMERICAN. Secondly, the aim is to evaluate the causal
relationship between factors identified and the dependent variable airline choice.
HYPOTHESIS DEVELOPMENT
Based on the review of literature and the objective Following are the hypotheses formulated from
the causes identified

INTERPRETATION AND FINDINGS
From the project study it is found that majority of the employees agree that there are no
buseer growth and advancement Motorola rtunities in the organization.
From the project study it is revealed that around 50% of the employees are satisfied with
the training programs provided in the organization whereas the other half displays
contradiction to this.
The study has also revealed that employee’s work is recognized by their supervisors and
it is a big motivational factor for the employees.
This project study has also revealed that majority of the employees get motivated from
the guidance and the instructions they get from their supervisors.
It has been found that majority of the employees are valued equally in the organization.
.
SUGGESTIONS
1. The study has clearly revealed that there is a prudent need for systematic training plans at all
levels. This would definitely lower down the percentage of employees (40%) who said that
timely training programs are not provided.
2. Training programs may be conducted on various topics like motivation, team building skills,
case study analysis, stress management techniques and many others.
3. KRA and KPI’s can be formulated for each employeeto enable efficiency in productivity.
4. The superior/Reporting Officer must give proper feedback sessions and seek suggestions from
his subordinates for overall development of proceduresand processes.
5. The major portion of the employees is covered with in the segment of above 40 years of age,
hence training on stress management and Health management are suggested.
6. The study had also revealed that time gap for taking decisions is longer than expected hence it
is pertinent to implement time frame for clearance of note sheets raised seeking decisions of the
higher ups.

CONCLUSION
With the arrival of many private low cost busriers and international busriers, AMERICAN should
reduce the cost of ticket on both domestic and international flights. Customer doesn’t find services
delivered up to the mark. The quality of food, service of cabin-crew, lateness of flight and safety
should be improved by AMERICAN to remain competitive in the market. It has become and more
imperative for the AMERICAN to prove its mettle and not just settle on the taxpayers money
bailed out by the exchequer but also on price, service and safety ground.

ABSTRACT
The motor vehicle industry has been the
leading consumer of fossil fuel worldwide
resulting in adverse effects on the
environment. This study used secondary
sources of information from previous
research in scholarly journals, Google
scholar as well as eBooks, case studies,
science direct, research gate, and achieved in the electric bus development include: the reduction
of charging time for effectiveness in use, the intro diction of super capacitors that ensures increased
charge storage, and with greater effective electromotive force. Additionally, some governments in
developed countries do offer subsidies to support electric bus manufacturing companies and
customers purchasing electric vehicles in order to meet their busboy dioxide pollution reduction
obligations, reduce production costs, and make EVs more affordable. Additional findings include:
the belief that Electric Vehicles have adverse effects on the environment compared to standard
vehicles that this is due to the fact that a lot of fossil fuels are consumed during the manufacturing
of Electric vehicles. The conclusion is that more research and study should be done to provide
insight into the manufacturing process of Electric Vehicles. There is not much data available to
conclude a strong foothold regarding fossil fuel consumption when making Electric Vehicles.
Areas for further study include: investigating the current state of more efficient energy storage
technologies, longevity of storage batteries beyond current 5-7 years of life.

INTRODUCTION
Fossil fuel-dependent vehicles have faced criticism on the effects they have on the environment
concerning global warming as well as other pollution conditions (Brand & Anable, 2019). To start
with, oil and gas are nonrenewable sources of energy, and it is predicted that these two sources
will be depleted within the next 100 years. This means existing reserves should be exploited
conservatively to ensure meeting the current energy needs of the people as well as the future
generations (Burch & Gilchrist, 2018). Also, this has generated a need to look for other sources of
non-fossil energy.
With regards to the effects, they have on the environment, the petroleum industry has been the
chief contributor to climate change and environmental pollution especially from the vehicular
impact as well as for industrial purposes (Liu et al., 2020). Following environmental activists’
perspective, most of them claim that doing away with fossil fuel completely is a better direction
that humanity should take in the move to save our planet. The main question is, will it be done
away with at the expense of the needs of the current generation? So far there hasn't been a better
energy source that can rival fossil fuel due to inconvenience, concerns as well as the cost. However,
with the passing of time and the constraints that are associated with its continual consumption,
humans have been forced to find alternatives to slowly replace it. (Jack, 2019)
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Taking active measures to reduce environmental pollution which entails the reduction of
greenhouse gas emissions has been considered as a solution towards the saving of our planet. The
sectors that consume the most fossil fuel including the transportation, industrial, and the
construction sectors have been forced to help combat environmental pollution conditions as well
as the effects of climate change.
The motor vehicle industry has mitigated the problem with the introduction of ELECTRIC BUS
with which the fossil fuel consumption is to be directed only to the heavy-duty machines rather
than the small passenger bus. Despite the laxity in coming up with more sophisticated systems that
are cost-effective for use, substantial efforts are visible and within the next three decades,
ELECTRIC BUS will be affordable and cost-effective
Taking an extensive look into ELECTRIC BUS through research and sharing of ideas can be
considered to be the cornerstone of this new revolution of going green and saving our planet. For
example, OLECTRA Motors has championed the use of ELECTRIC BUS through sophisticated
and modern techniques in ensuring that this becomes a living reality.
REVIEW LITERATURE
This literature review focuses on the findings for which the adoption of ELECTRIC BUS could
contribute to environmental conservation as well as the effectiveness to which they can operate
31. ISBN - 978-81-963578-9-4

without having a compromise on the state of the global economy as the efficiency in the
transportation. Ensuring that our future generations can meet their needs is a collective
responsibility that we are faced with as humans especially in the energy sector as well as for the
environment at large. To be specific, the motor vehicle industry has been the chief contributor to
environmental pollution and the effects of climate change (Bhandarkar, 2013).
In order to answer the research questions, this literature review and the paper is organized based
on the following topics: (a) The possibility of ELECTRIC BUS replacing gasoline dependent
buss, the obstacles they face and how they are answered; (b) Solving charging time for ELECTRIC
BUS and how the issue of long distance travel is being addressed and solved; (c) The limitations
and alternative sources of energy used in manufacturing ELECTRIC BUS ; and to show milestones
that humans have achieved since the adoption of ELECTRIC BUS .
ABOUT THE JBM AUTO LTD
Launched from the Astral depot by Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rumania, the buses have been
completely localized to meet FAME II guidelines JBM Auto Limited’s ECO-LIFE electric buses
were recently launched by Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rumania from the Vastral BRTS depot
virtually via web conferencing. Home Minister of Gujarat Pradipsinh Jadeja presided over the
launch ceremony in person at the depot.
This is the first batch of 50 buses out of a total of 180 buses that JBM Auto will be supplying to
Ahmedabad. The bus service has been rolled
Out under the BRTS scheme by Ahmedabad Janmarg Ltd., which is a 100 per cent subsidiary of
Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation. The ECO-LIFE electric bus, a zero-emission vehicle, will
save around 1,000 equivalent tons of carbon dioxide and 3, 50,000 liters of diesel over 10 years of
operation.

This is a huge evolution from how public transportation operates in India. ECO-LIFE, powered by
fast-charging lithium-ion batteries, can run up to 250 km per day with opportunity charging,
depending on the city’s traffic conditions. These buses are equipped with modern features like
real-time passenger information system (PIS), panic buttons for emergency, automatic bus vehicle
location system, CCTV cameras, public address system and stop request buttons, to name a few.
JBM Auto has commissioned a state-of-the-art end-to-end e-mobility ecosystem at the Vastral
depot which includes the buses, charging infrastructure, power infrastructure and maintenance as
a complete solution.
The company has installed a fast-charging station that will facilitate seamless bus operation across
the city. JBM Auto has also provisioned high-tech power infrastructure and energy management
system for efficient monitoring and control. Speaking on the occasion, Nish ant Arya, Vice
Chairman, JBM Group, said, “JBM Auto is determined to create state-of-the-art e-mobility
ecosystem across the country. The launch of electric buses in Ahmedabad is in line with our vision
to provide green and sustainable transport solutions. Our buses are successfully serving the masses
in many other states as well, such as Delhi, Maharashtra, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Andaman and
Nicobar, Karnataka, etc.”
“JBM Auto has been a pioneer in providing the complete e-mobility ecosystem right from electric
vehicles, charging infrastructure, power infrastructure to maintenance and support, thereby
providing optimum value for the customers,” he added. The real-time passenger information
system shall keep the location of the bus updated for passengers travelling in the bus. Safety
features such as CCTV cameras have been installed inside the bus that will aid in uninterrupted
surveillance of activities inside the buses. Passengers can use the stop request button to alert the
driver to stop the bus at an upcoming bus stop.
The ECO-LIFE bus incorporates other
utility features such as vehicle health
monitoring system, fire detection and
suppression system, public address system,
etc. For drivers, the ergonomically designed
dashboard provides an intuitive and user-
friendly system that allows them to
concentrate on driving without distractions,
which makes it a truly global product. The
bus division of JBM Auto Ltd., the flagship
company of the multi-billion dollar JBM
Group, has been a pioneer in bringing
products that have been significantly ahead
of the prevailing practices and solutions. JBM Auto’s buses are committed to combining fuel
efficiency with utility and performance using green and effective technology, thereby reducing the
33. ISBN - 978-81-963578-9-4
33 | P a g e
carbon footprint in the overall environment. The company’s manufacturing facilities are in
Faridabad (Haryana) and Kisi (Uttar Pradesh) with an annual installed capacity of 2,000 buses.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
Following the continued environmental concerns related to the fossil fuel use and transport sector
being the leading contributor to environmental pollution, most of the state governments have
moved towards the support of the use of greener sources of energy that include solar, HEP power,
biogas, and wind (Martins et al., 2019).OLECTRA being in the frontier of ensuring that going
green is a reality through their advanced ELECTRIC BUS , they have managed to get government
support through subsidies and political influence that has enabled them to reach the market more
easily.
MERGER AND ACQUISITION
Eliminating middlemen and ensuring that all the production is done under one roof has been among
the leading contributors to the success ofOLECTRA Motors. For instance, the acquisition of Hiba
Systems, a private company specialized in the manufacture of batteries has greatly impacted the
great milestone of their charging system (Wiebe, 2019). Additionally, Deep Scale, one of the AI
start-ups was also acquired byOLECTRA Motors, this has ensured that their products can be of
world-class quality. A sensitized production where every part has a specialized team handling is
currently the futile business model that can be adopted in the competitive world.
INVESTMENT IN RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
To keep the track of the consumerist economy, OLECTRA has majorly focused on performing
intense research for continued improvement of their vehicles (Castellan, 2020). Their budget
allocated for research has been growing over the years putting them at a competitive advantage
with other bus manufacturing firms that depend on gasoline for propulsion. One of the major
advances that they have put in place to help them win the interest of the public, is the use of social
media in dissuading the masses from using gasoline BUS for the move towards the reduction of
busboy footprints. Events such as the global environmental days have provided a favorable podium
for showcasing their products.
GEOGRAPHIC EXPANSION
Ensuring that they can penetrate all economies and be able to access the whole world as a market
to their product has been another contributing strategy towards the success ofOLECTRA Motors.
Currently, they are setting their stores everywhere across the globe to ensure that the vast
population can be able to get access to ELECTRIC BUS. China is one of their leading markets
where they have set a number of their stores, with the government of China getting involved in
electric bus sales and production,OLECTRA Motors has been enjoying the benefits of tax-free
trade with which the import duty and tax tariffs have been lifted for them. This has additionally
34. ISBN - 978-81-963578-9-4
34 | P a g e
enabled them to get access to the market. The intense competition that they were facing from the
gasoline dependent vehicles has greatly been reduced and there is a great chance of the company
growing greatly.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Due to a variety of variables, electric autoLAPTOPS have seen the most widespread acceptance
of alternatively powered vehicles (Wilberforce et al., 2017). For starters, the cost of electricity is
comparable to the cost of gasoline for cuss timers. Second, practically everyone who owns a bus
has access to a power source at home. It's simple to recharge. As documented in the 2006
documentary "Who Killed the Eel citric Bus," electric autoLAPTOPS failed when they first came
to market, owing to high costs, a lack of familiarity, and reluctance from major automakers to
produce them. However, a lot has changed since 2006. ELECTRIC BUS are becoming more
ubiquitous on American and European roadways, and their popularity is growing. But, can
ELECTRIC BUS truly replace our gas-powered vehicles, or will they constantly trail behind their
predecessors? The expense of replacing gas-powered BUS with electric vehicles, or EVs, is the
first major roadblock.
Electric vehicles have always had higher upfront costs than gas autoLAPTOPS. New technologies
are lowering costs to make them more competitive, but the purchase price remains an important
factor to consider. However, once you purchase the vehicle, the cost of ownership decreases. Tire
rotation and replacement are still required, but oil changes and trips to the gas station are no longer
required. In general, the expenses of maintenance and general operation are lower with an EV than
with a gas autoLAPTOPS. In addition, the government has provided some tax breaks and credits
to consumers who buy electric vehicles, which might help to reduce the cost even more.
SOLVING CHARGING TIME FOR ELECTRIC BUS
Due to the large number of new electric vehicles that will be entering the market in the coming
year, many people are wondering how we will be able to charge all of these autoLAPTOPS. After
all, there are around 15 electric vehicles for every one public charging station, so it is a reasonable
topic to pose. Even in California, which has the most developed electric vehicle market, the 10:1
ratio is not significantly better (Ait-Ouahmed, 2018). These figures do not take into account the
fact that about 95 percent of the currently available public chargers.
Are Level 2 chargers, which means it will take approximately 8-12 hours to fully charge
ofOLECTRA? When electric vehicles inevitably become commonplace, it will be a tremendous
challenge to develop a public transportation system that functions in the manner in which people
35. ISBN - 978-81-963578-9-4
35 | P a g e
are accustomed. As a result, electric vehicles such as theOLECTRA Model 3 are bound to failure,
as some have predicted.
POSSIBILITY OF USING ELECTRIC BUS IN LONG DISTANCE TRAVEL
Taking a road trip was not an option when electric vehicles first entered the market and were
available to the general public. Long-distance driving was hampered by a number of significant
obstacles, including the high cost of electric vehicles, a subsidy of charging stations across the
country, and slow charging batteries. All three of these limits have now been overcome, making
road trips with your electric vehicle virtually as simple as driving a gas-powered vehicle
(Ackerman et al., 2021).
The prospect for more charging stations, which is rising every year, addresses the worry of taking
long distance trips with your EV. There are 21,362 charging stations with 61,679 charging outlets
around the United States as of March 2019. Drivers should expect to see more charging stations
available each year as more ELECTRIC BUS hit the road. Every week, more stations are added to
the list, not just in major cities, but across the country, notably along state and interstate highways.
MILESTONES ACHIEVED IN ELECTRIC BUS DEVELOPMENT
The major milestones are depicted from the efficiency rooting from being super-fast. EVs are
lightning fast. It's ridiculously quick, and it's only getting faster with new developments. Every
electric vehicle, no matter how powerful its battery, will need to be charged at some time. The
good news is that charging stations are springing up all over the country: there are already over
16,000, up from a few thousand just a few years ago and charging times are also decreasing
(Kremer et al., 2014)
As EV batteries develop, owners will be able to drive their BUS for longer periods of time between
charges. This summer, someone established ofOLECTRA range record by driving 670 miles on a
single battery charge. This helps get rid of "range anxiety".
LIMITATIONS
In the electric vehicle market, there are various constraints that limit growth and demand. There
are causes that are currently causing concern, as well as elements that are expected to cause
concern in the future (Andersen, 2013). This article discusses these concerns as well as proposed
solutions. They include the following: battery capacity. Of course, no matter how long their range
is, plug-in electric vehicles must be charged on a regular basis. Around 80% of electric vehicle
charging takes place at home.
Electric vehicles consume a lot of energy. With electric vehicles accounting for less than 2% of all
vehicles on the road in the United States, their impact on the electrical grid is now insignificant.
However, as the number of electric vehicles on the road grows, we should expect them to put a
burden on infrastructure.

FEATURES
The world is reeling under two major issues relating to mobility – environment pollution and
congestion. Of the 20 most polluted cities of the world, 14 cities are in India. Transport is one of
the biggest contributor of pollution and public transportation accounts for 90% of transport. Thus,
the transition to sustainable & clean mobility is a necessity and not an option. Furthermore, the
penetration of buses in India is less than 2 buses per 1,000 population – this is set to increase
exponentially. Cognizant of the need of the country, JBM has been at the forefront of change and
is spearheading new-age high tech transportation solutions which drive value for the customer

CONCLUSION
Electric vehicles offer great potential to recuperate efficiency within the transport system. This is
majorly on roads, reducing traffic accidents, increasing productivity, and minimizing our
environmental impact in the process. However, they have also seen resistance from different
groups claiming that they are unsafe, pose a risk of being hacked, will threaten jobs, and increase
environmental pollution from increased driving as a result of their convenience. In order to gain
massively from the advancing technology of the electric bus’s system and at the same time
avoiding some of the many pitfalls, it is vital to effectively find out what negative impacts we
stand to face in the future and what steps need to be taken now to avoid them as discussed in the
paper. There exists a gap that still needs much intervention and is entirely based on the additional
insights of how the policymaker’s actions now will affect the future development and use of
emerging technologies.

“AN OVERVIEW ON ELECTRIC CARS ARE THE FUTURE OF
TRANSPORTATION IN INDIA”
CHAPTER – 5
Mr. J JANARTHANAN
ASSISTANT PROFESSOR

KATHIR COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCE, COIMBATORE
ABSTRACT
The motor vehicle industry has been the
leading consumer of fossil fuel worldwide
resulting in adverse effects on the
environment. This study used secondary
sources of information from previous
research in scholarly journals, Google
scholar as well as eBooks, case studies,
science direct, research gate, and achieved
in the electric car development include: the
reduction of charging time for effectiveness
in use, the intro diction of super capacitors
that ensures increased charge storage, and
with greater effective electromotive force. Additionally, some governments in developed countries
do offer subsidies to support electric car manufacturing companies and customers purchasing
electric vehicles in order to meet their carbon dioxide pollution reduction obligations, reduce
production costs, and make EVs more affordable. Additional findings include: the belief that
Electric Vehicles have adverse effects on the environment compared to standard vehicles that this
is due to the fact that a lot of fossil fuels are consumed during the manufacturing of Electric
vehicles. The conclusion is that more research and study should be done to provide insight into the

INTRODUCTION
Fossil fuel-dependent vehicles have faced criticism on the effects they have on the environment
concerning global warming as well as other pollution conditions (Brand & Anable, 2019). To start
with, oil and gas are nonrenewable sources of energy, and it is predicted that these two sources
will be depleted within the next 100 years. This means existing reserves should be exploited
conservatively to ensure meeting the current energy needs of the people as well as the future
generations (Burch & Gilchrist, 2018). Also, this has generated a need to look for other sources of
non-fossil energy.
With regards to the effects, they have on the environment, the petroleum industry has been the
chief contributor to climate change and environmental pollution especially from the vehicular
impact as well as for industrial purposes (Liu et al., 2020). Following environmental activists’
perspective, most of them claim that doing away with fossil fuel completely is a better direction
that humanity should take in the move to save our planet. The main question is, will it be done
away with at the expense of the needs of the current generation? So far there hasn't been a better
energy source that can rival fossil fuel due to inconvenience, concerns as well as the cost. However,
with the passing of time and the constraints that are associated with its continual consumption,
humans have been forced to find alternatives to slowly replace it. (Jack, 2019)
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Taking active measures to reduce
environmental pollution which entails the
reduction of greenhouse gas emissions has
been considered as a solution towards the
saving of our planet. The sectors that
consume the most fossil fuel including the
transportation, industrial, and the
construction sectors have been forced to help
combat environmental pollution conditions
as well as the effects of climate change.
The motor vehicle industry has mitigated the problem with the introduction of electric cars with
which the fossil fuel consumption is to be directed only to the heavy-duty machines rather than the
small passenger cars. Despite the laxity in coming up with more sophisticated systems that are
cost-effective for use, substantial efforts are visit le and within the next three decades, electric cars
will be affordable and cost-effective (Hensher, 2020).
Taking an extensive look into electric cars through research and sharing of ideas can be considered
to be the cornerstone of this new revolution of going green and saving our planet. For example,

Tesla Motors has championed the use of electric cars through sophisticated and modern techniques
in ensuring that this becomes a living reality.
REVIEW LITERATURE
This literature review focuses on the findings for which the adoption of electric cars could
contribute to environmental conservation as well as the effectiveness to which they can operate
without having a compromise on the state of the global economy as the efficiency in the
transportation. Ensuring that our future generations can meet their needs is a collective
responsibility that we are faced with as humans especially in the energy sector as well as for the
environment at large. To be specific, the motor vehicle industry has been the chief contributor to
environmental pollution and the effects of climate change (Bhandarkar, 2013).
In order to answer the research questions, this literature review and the paper is organized based
on the following topics: (a) The possibility of Electric cars replacing gasoline dependent cars, the
obstacles they face and how they are answered; (b) Solving charging time for Electric cars and
how the issue of long distance travel is being addressed and solved; (c) The limitations and
alternative sources of energy used in manufacturing Electric cars; and to show milestones that
humans have achieved since the adoption of electric cars.
ABOUT THE TESA ELECTRIC VEHICLES
According to Hoffman (2015), Tesla Motors is one of the pioneers in the innovation of electric
motors. This case study illustrates the various strategies that they put in place to ensure that this
becomes a reality in addition to the competitive advantages that they have in terms of the resources
and availability of skilled personnel.
Tesla motors deals in the fabrication, manufacturing, assembling, and sale of electric cars majorly
in the US, China, and internationally. Making it to the top despite the newness of their technology
as well as the unfavorable market conditions has been underpinned by their immutable strategies
and leadership skills which have, in turn, enabled them to win a massive demand.
TECHNOLOGY
Leon Musk who is the CEO at Space is as well the CEO at Tesla Motors, with this, he has joined
up the technical advances that are utilized in the rockets on electric cars. With this, they have
managed to be in the development frontier which has, in turn, enhanced their electric cars
immensely (Liu et al., 2014). Most of their target market views them as a copy cut of the Space
rockets and this has been a contributing factor towards their global dominance.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS

Following the continued environmental concerns related to the fossil fuel use and transport sector
being the leading contributor to environmental pollution, most of the state governments have
moved towards the support of the use of greener sources of energy that include solar, HEP power,
biogas, and wind (Martins et al., 2019). Tesla being in the frontier of ensuring that going green is
a reality through their advanced electric cars, they have managed to get government support
through subsidies and political influence that has enabled them to reach the market more easily.
MERGER AND ACQUISITION
Eliminating middlemen and
ensuring that all the pro diction is
done under one roof has been
among the leading contributors to
the success of Tesla Motors. For
instance, the acquisition of Hiba
Systems, a private company
specialized in the manufacture of
batteries has greatly impacted the
great milestone of their charging
system (Wiebe, 2019).
Additionally, Deep Scale, one of the
AI start-ups was also acquired by Tesla Motors, this has ensured that their products can be of
world-class quality. A sensitized production where every part has a specialized team handling is
currently the futile business model that can be adopted in the competitive world.
INVESTMENT IN RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
To keep the track of the consumerist economy, Tesla has majorly focused on performing intense
research for continued improvement of their vehicles (Castellan, 2020). Their budget allocated for
research has been growing over the years putting them at a competitive advantage with other car
manufacturing firms that depend on gasoline for propulsion. One of the major advances that they
have put in place to help them win the interest of the public, is the use of social media in dissuading
the masses from using gasoline cars for the move towards the reduction of carbon footprints.
Events such as the global environmental days have provided a favorable podium for showcasing
their products.
GEOGRAPHIC EXPANSION
Ensuring that they can penetrate all economies and be able to access the whole world as a market
to their product has been another contributing strategy towards the success of Tesla Motors.
Currently, they are setting their stores everywhere across the globe to ensure that the vast
population can be able to get access to electric cars. China is one of their leading markets where
they have set a number of their stores, with the government of China getting involved in electric
car sales and production, Tesla Motors has been enjoying the benefits of tax-free trade with which

the import duty and tax tariffs have been lifted for them. This has additionally enabled them to get
access to the market. The intense competition that they were facing from the gasoline dependent
vehicles has greatly been reduced and there is a great chance of the company growing greatly.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Due to a variety of variables, electric automobiles have seen the most widespread acceptance of
alternatively powered vehicles (Wilberforce et al., 2017). For starters, the cost of electricity is
comparable to the cost of gasoline for cuss timers. Second, practically everyone who owns a car
has access to a power source at home. It's simple to recharge. As documented in the 2006
documentary "Who Killed the Electric Car," electric automobiles failed when they first came to
market, owing to high costs, a lack of familiarity, and reluctance from major automakers to produce
them. However, a lot has changed since 2006. Electric cars are becoming more ubiquitous on
American and European roadways, and their popularity is growing. But, can electric cars truly
replace our gas-powered vehicles, or will they constantly trail behind their predecessors? The
expense of replacing gas-powered cars with electric vehicles, or EVs, is the first major roadblock.
Electric vehicles have always had higher upfront costs than gas automobiles. New technologies
are lowering costs to make them more competitive, but the purchase price remains an important
factor to consider. However, once you purchase the vehicle, the cost of ownership decreases. Tire
rotation and replacement are still required, but oil changes and trips to the gas station are no longer
required. In general, the expenses of maintenance and general operation are lower with an EV than
with a gas automobile. In addition, the government has provided some tax breaks and credits to
consumers who buy electric vehicles, which might help to reduce the cost even more.
The battery is another barrier that many individuals face when it comes to owning an electric
vehicle. Despite Tesla Motors' (TSLA) efforts to enhance battery technology, most electric
vehicles still have a limited range. The RENAULT Leaf, for example (disclaimer: my father owns
a RENAULT Leaf), can only travel around 100 to 200 miles on a full charge, and even less with
the air conditioning or heat on. 2 These vehicles are useful for commuting, but they are not suitable
for extended drives or road excursions.
Even if you can find a charger at your midway point, if you want to make it back, you'll need to
take the time to plug in (Rapier and Albrecht, 2020). Chargers are becoming more widely available,
but the battery is still preventing electric vehicles from reaching their full potential. On a regular
outlet, charging my father's RENAULT Leaf from 0% to 100% takes all night. You can charge in
seven hours with a home charging station, which can cost thousands of dollars to buy and install.
New charger technology allows you to charge to 80% in 30 minutes, however these chargers are
pricey and difficult to find.
