EveyTrans adds 65 electric buses to Telangana State Road Transport Corporation’s fleet

Evey Trans Private Limited, an electric bus operator under Megha Engineering & Infrastructures Limited (MEIL), partnered with the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TGSRTC) to flag off 65 electric buses from the Ranigunj Depot under the TGSRTC 500 Low-Floor City Bus Project. This addition expands the electric bus network in Hyderabad’s public transport system.

These 65 buses are part of the 100-bus allocation for the Ranigunj Depot, which now joins CNT, Miyapur, HCU, and Hayatnagar as one of the five depots operating under the project. The overall 500-bus initiative includes 450 non-AC and 50 AC low-floor electric city buses. TGSRTC has received 325 buses so far, and the remaining 175 are expected to be inducted by January 2026.

The launch event at the Ranigunj Depot was attended by Transport Minister Shri Ponnam Prabhakar, Hyderabad Mayor Gadwal Vijaya Laxmi, TGSRTC VC & MD Shri Y. Nagi Reddy, Evey Trans CEO Shri Sandeep Raizada, along with elected representatives and senior officials of TGSRTC.

The newly inducted buses will operate on routes connecting Secunderabad, Kondapur, Isnapur, Borabanda, Ramayampet, Gachibowli, and Miyapur.

Speaking on the occasion, Telangana Transport Minister Ponnam Prabhakar said, “These new buses will connect nearly 373 colonies. Over the last two years, our fleet has grown by 40%, and we have also initiated the recruitment of new staff to strengthen services. We are committed to addressing passenger concerns, ensuring cleanliness, introducing electric buses, and establishing new depots to improve public transport facilities. I am very happy to witness the launch of 65 new buses today, which will significantly strengthen urban connectivity.”

Sandeep Raizada, CEO of Evey Trans, said, “With today’s launch, this becomes our 69th depot across India and the fifth depot in Telangana, as part of our planned expansion to six depots in the state. Across the country, we are successfully operating over 3,100 buses across 10 States and 2 Union Territories. We are proud to add 65 new buses to the fleet today and reaffirm our commitment to delivering the remaining buses by January 2026. All our buses are operating in excellent condition, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride for passengers.”
