Numbers from a City+ owner running a fixed route in Zirakpur, twelve months in. Your route will differ, but the shape of it holds.
Gross and net
On a good day he books about ₹1,200. Charging costs roughly ₹60, the EMI works out near ₹180 a day, and he sets aside ₹40 for servicing and tyres. That leaves close to ₹900 in hand on a full working day.
What changes the number
Route matters more than vehicle. A fixed shuttle between a market and a residential block beats waiting at a stand. Rain days cost a third of takings. And a second charger at home means no idle afternoon.
Battery planning
The single biggest long-term cost is the battery. Plan for it from month one rather than being surprised in year three.
