India’s Tata Power inaugurated its largest Tata.ev MegaCharger hub in Mumbai on Wednesday, coinciding with the annual World EV Day. The facility, established in collaboration with Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Limited (TPEML), Tata Motors’ electric car subsidiary, features eight DC chargers capable of delivering up to 120 kW of power. Each charger has dual charging guns, allowing 16 electric vehicles to charge simultaneously.

The new hub is located at The Leela Mumbai Hotel, roughly two kilometres from Terminal 2 of the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, and operates 24/7 entirely on renewable energy. Tata Power said the site is strategically positioned to serve private car owners, taxis, ride-hailing fleets, and logistics operators along the busy Andheri–Bandra Kurla Complex–South Mumbai corridor.

Tata Power CEO and Managing Director Dr. Praveer Sinha described the launch as reflecting “our integrated approach to driving India’s green mobility transition.” Shailesh Chandra, Managing Director of TPEML and Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Limited, added that the hub’s inauguration marks “a significant milestone in our mission to grow widespread, fast and reliable charging infrastructure in India.”

Tata Power and TPEML said the facility offers priority access and discounts of up to 25% for Tata.ev customers, but it is open to all EV users. The company has previously installed more than 5,500 public and captive EV charging points, over 140,000 home chargers, and more than 1,200 bus charging points across India.

TPEML plans to roll out 500 Tata.ev MegaChargers nationwide by 2027. The Mumbai hub’s eight DC chargers form part of this broader initiative, developed in partnership with Tata Power, Charge Zone, Statiq, and Zeon.
