April 28, 2026 — In a significant boost to India’s electric mobility push, SoftTech Engineers Limited, in collaboration with National Highway Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NHEV), has introduced a groundbreaking digital solution—India’s First GIS-enabled Platform for EVs Launched by SoftTech—to streamline approvals for EV infrastructure along national highways.
A Unified Digital Ecosystem for EV Growth
The newly unveiled system, India’s First GIS-enabled Platform for EVs, launched by SoftTech, replaces traditionally fragmented, multi-department approval processes with a single, integrated digital interface. Built on SoftTech’s proprietary Civit technology, the platform simplifies the entire lifecycle of EV infrastructure development—from registration to execution.
It caters to three major stakeholder groups: facility allottees such as EV charging operators, land providers offering highway-side parcels, and service partners supplying equipment and services. By consolidating every approval touchpoint into one portal, the system eliminates inefficiencies and significantly reduces project delays.
Key Features Driving Efficiency
At the core of India’s First GIS-enabled Platform for EVs Launched by SoftTech is its advanced Geographic Information System (GIS) integration. This feature enables applicants to assess and select suitable locations using real-time geospatial highway data even before submitting documentation.
The platform also offers:
- Unified Portal Access: A single interface covering registration, compliance, approvals, and land allotment
- Real-Time Tracking Dashboard: Ensures transparency for applicants, regulators, and landowners
- Standardized Workflows: Automated, auditable processes to reduce manual errors and improve compliance
These features collectively enhance speed, transparency, and accountability in EV infrastructure deployment.
Transforming Highway EV Infrastructure
The launch of India’s First GIS-enabled Platform for EVs, launched by SoftTech, marks a major milestone in India’s journey toward sustainable transportation. By accelerating the rollout of EV charging stations and wayside amenities, the initiative strengthens the backbone of the country’s EV highway ecosystem.
The platform streamlines critical processes, including GIS-based site selection, compliance review, regulatory approvals, and execution management. Its real-time visibility ensures all stakeholders remain aligned throughout the approval lifecycle.
Recognition and Strategic Vision
The initiative also highlights SoftTech’s leadership in digital infrastructure innovation. Vijay Gupta, Founder and CEO of SoftTech Engineers Limited, was honored with the Viksit Bharat Ambassador of Change Award at the Climate Financing Summit 2026 for his role in advancing technology-driven infrastructure modernization.
As India accelerates its transition to electric mobility, this platform is expected to play a pivotal role in enabling faster, more efficient deployment of EV infrastructure across national highways, paving the way for a cleaner and more connected transportation future.
