The charging station at a petrol-diesel station in Nagpur has been launched in collaboration with Ola, the company said in a statement.

As India’s leading oil refiner and marketer, IOC considers promoting ecological sustainability as part of its core business. Thus, this partnership with Ola is the right step forward as we re-imagine how India will commute in coming years.
