While Volume I examined international policy frameworks, business models, and case studies across Europe, North America, Asia, Africa, and the Australia–Pacific region, this volume applies those global lessons directly to India. It presents a comprehensive assessment to quantify the domestic market opportunity and evaluate ecosystem readiness. Specifically, the report models the supply potential of repurposed batteries under two EV adoption scenarios, maps the demand landscape and application fit, and identifies priority interventions for strengthening India’s regulatory, technical, and institutional ecosystems.

The specific objectives of the report are to:

• Understand India’s current BESS landscape—the scale of need, the policy context, and the market dynamics that make repurposed batteries strategically relevant.
• Quantify the potential supply of repurposed EV batteries in India.
• Map battery demand sectors, evaluate application requirements, and benchmark suitability across use cases.
• Derive structured insights from global best practices to identify priority actions for strengthening India’s regulatory, technical, and market ecosystems for second-life batteries.
