India is rapidly moving toward an electric future — but are we already years behind the global race for sustainable mobility? 🚗⚡In this episode of Business & Beyond, we sit down with Gunjan Mehta, Founder of MobiLane Network, an Ahmedabad-based EV infrastructure entrepreneur working to solve one of India’s biggest future challenges: reducing dependency on oil while building a reliable electric mobility ecosystem.This conversation goes far beyond electric vehicles.It explores how global oil dependency affects India’s economy, why countries like China accelerated EV adoption years ago, and what India must do now to avoid falling further behind in the transition toward sustainable transportation.From startup survival and infrastructure challenges to charging reliability, urban mobility, and the future of autonomous vehicles, Gunjan shares practical insights from being on the frontlines of India’s EV revolution.🎯 What You’ll Discover:~ Why India remains heavily dependent on global oil supply chains~ How countries like China moved years ahead in EV adoption~ The real reasons behind India’s slow EV infrastructure growth~ Why “range anxiety” may disappear sooner than people expect~ The biggest misconceptions people still have about electric vehicles~ How MobiLane is building an interoperable EV charging ecosystem~ Challenges of scaling EV infrastructure in India~ What it takes for an EV startup to survive in a high-capex industry~ The role of technology, policy, and consumer behavior in EV adoption~ Why autonomous vehicles could become the next major disruption🌍 Why This Matters to You:India imports a massive portion of its oil requirements.Every fuel price hike, global conflict, or supply disruption directly impacts businesses, transportation costs, and everyday life.The transition toward electric mobility is no longer just about sustainability —it’s about economic resilience, energy independence, cleaner cities, and the future of urban infrastructure.Understanding this shift helps you better understand where India is heading over the next decade.👤 About the Guest –Gunjan Mehta is the Founder of MobiLane Network and Co-founder of EVamp Technologies, an Ahmedabad-based EV infrastructure company focused on building scalable and accessible charging solutions across India.With experience in finance, entrepreneurship, and electric mobility systems, Gunjan has been actively involved in developing interoperable charging networks designed to simplify EV adoption for Indian consumers.Under his leadership, MobiLane has expanded rapidly across multiple cities while working toward creating one of India’s most accessible open EV charging ecosystems.🎧 About Business & BeyondBusiness & Beyond is a podcast exploring real conversations at the intersection of business, infrastructure, urban development, technology, and civic systems — beyond surface-level discussions.We bring together founders, innovators, experts, and changemakers who are actively building the India of tomorrow through practical execution and bold ideas.👉 Watch the full episode now👉 Share your thoughts in the comments👉 Subscribe for more conversations on business, infrastructure, innovation, and urban transformation#electricvehicles #evindia #thebusinessandbeyond #evinfrastructure #electricmobility #evcharging #cleanenergy #smartcities #urbanmobility #sustainablefuture #futureoftransportation #startupindia #autonomousvehicles #ahmedabad
