10%), because the battery pack is the most expensive single component in all electric vehicles.
Nevertheless, the price changes for Mahindra and Tata motor electric vehicles will not happen immediately as in the past, and in the past, the goods and services tax in certain auto sectors prompted Indian automakers to respond quickly.
This is mainly due to the fact that unlike fully manufactured cars, the prices of these cars can be changed in a short period of time, and the components are usually purchased in advance (in large quantities ), this may cause the price to remain the same until the next batch of batteries is purchased.

A more cost-effective battery pack may mean cheaper electric vehicles, as the battery pack is the most expensive single unit in any electric vehicle.
The cost of the electric battery is calculated at "$ per kWh" and as of 2018, the cost per kWh of the electric vehicle battery is $225-$250.
Although the cost per kWh fell sharply year on year.
For example, in 2010, the same cost was set at $1000, and by 2026, the cost per kilowatt hour would fall below $100, greatly increasing the overall price of electric vehicles by significantly reducing prices.
