E20 Petrol will be PAN India from 01 April 2025.

Govt started rolling out E20 Petrol in select cities from 01 April 2023. Giving 2 years time to become E20 Petrol PAN India. Already E20 Petrol is available in metro cities.

Car manufacturers would have to sell only E20 Petrol compliant cars from 01 April 2023.
