Summary
<p>When a public electric bus breaks down in India, three agencies get notified. </p><p>None of them can actually fix it. </p><p>The buses don't belong to the cities that run them. The contracts sit with central agencies. The warranties belong to manufacturers. </p><p>When a four-year-old bus stalls because its battery management system glitched, the city logs a complaint, calculates a fine for the manufacturers, and takes the bus off the route. Commuters are left slim pickings. </p><p>And India's about to deploy thousands more using the same model.</p><p><strong><em>Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India’s first subscriber-only business news platform. </em></strong><a href="https://the-ken.com/pricing/"><strong><em>Subscribe</em></strong></a><strong><em> for more exclusive, deeply-reported, and analytical business stories.</em></strong></p>
