Must Read

In a significant leap toward its commitment to sustainability, bigbasket, a TATA Enterprise, has expanded its electric vehicle (EV) delivery fleet across 50 cities, reinforcing its position as a pioneer in eco-friendly e-commerce logistics. Strengthening this vision, bigbasket has partnered with Kazam, integrating cutting-edge EV infrastructure and technology to further accelerate the green transition.

As one of the earliest adopters of electric mobility in Indian e-commerce, bigbasket has consistently led efforts to reduce its carbon footprint. By partnering with Kazam, bigbasket has deployed a robust EV infrastructure and fleet management systems – with more than 4000 charging points at 773 of its locations, with 24/7 surveillance, LEVAC compliance, and zero downtime protocols. These initiatives are now enabling bigbasket to manage energy consumption, driver performance, route efficiency, and cost optimization through a unified, intelligent system.

TK Balakumar, Chief Operating Officer, bigbasket, commented, “Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword for us; it’s built into our DNA. We are committed to building a logistics ecosystem that’s future-ready, cost-efficient, and environmentally responsible. Our collaboration with Kazam has further enabled us to scale with precision and integrate cutting-edge energy tech into our supply chain. Our goal is to achieve a 60% electric delivery fleet by 2030.

The impact is clear: bigbasket has already managed over 3.2 GWh of clean energy and facilitated more than 64 million green kilometres in deliveries. This shift not only supports environmental stewardship but also improves operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness in the long term.

“We’ve always believed in making EV adoption frictionless, not forced,” said Akshay Shekhar, Kazam. “This partnership with bigbasket proves that when businesses are empowered with real-time energy intelligence and interoperable systems, green logistics can scale fast, securely, and sustainably. We’re not just topping up batteries, we’re building the future of delivery.”

While bigbasket continues to lead on sustainability, its partnership with Kazam has added strong momentum. As a prominent player in India’s EV energy-tech landscape, Kazam has supported this initiative with interoperable charging stations, driver-centric tools, and real-time energy monitoring systems, ensuring scalability, reliability, and seamless integration across the delivery fleet.
