India EV Market Dashboard

This project provides an interactive dashboard to analyze the electric vehicle (EV) market in India from 2001 to 2024. Using data from Kaggle, the dashboard offers insights into EV sales trends, market shares of manufacturers, geographical distribution of EV makers, and market penetration of EVs compared to total vehicle registrations. Built with Streamlit, it enables users to explore data through interactive visualizations and filters.

Dataset

The project uses the following datasets from the Kaggle India EV Market Data:

File Name	Description	Usage in Dashboard
ev_sales_by_makers_and_cat_15-24.csv	EV sales by manufacturers and vehicle categories (e.g., 2W, 3W) from 2015-2024	Sales trends, market share, category analysis
ev_cat_01-24.csv	Vehicle registration data by category (e.g., two-wheelers, three-wheelers) from 2001-2024	Market penetration calculations
EV Maker by Place.csv	List of EV manufacturers and their locations (city, state) in India	Geographical distribution of makers

Note: Other files in the dataset (e.g., OperationalPC.csv, Vehicle Class - All.csv) are not used in this project.

Installation

To run the dashboard locally, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/india-ev-market-dashboard.git
   cd india-ev-market-dashboard

2. Create a virtual environment (recommended):

   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

   The requirements.txt includes:

   streamlit~=1.45.0
   pandas~=2.2.3
   plotly~=6.0.1
   geopandas
   watchdog
   numpy~=2.2.5
   seaborn
   matplotlib
   

Usage

To launch the dashboard:

1. Ensure the dataset files (ev_sales_by_makers_and_cat_15-24.csv, ev_cat_01-24.csv, EV Maker by Place.csv) are in the project directory.
2. Run the Streamlit app:

   streamlit run streamlit_app.py

3. Open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8501 to view the dashboard.

Features

The dashboard offers eight interactive tabs, each providing unique insights into the India EV market:

Tab Name	Description	Visualization Type
Overview	Tracks total EV sales trends (2015-2024) with policy markers (FAME-I, FAME-II)	Line chart
Sales by Category	Displays sales by vehicle categories (e.g., 2W, 3W, LMV)	Bar chart
Maker Market Share	Shows market share of top N manufacturers	Pie chart
Geographical Distribution	Visualizes EV manufacturer locations by state	Bar chart
Market Penetration	Analyzes EV share in total vehicle registrations by category	Line chart
Charging Infrastructure	Compares charging station growth with EV sales (2022-2024)	Dual-axis scatter plot
Top Performers	Lists top 5 manufacturers by sales in a selected year	Table
Growth Rates	Examines year-over-year EV sales growth	Bar chart

Interactive Filters:

• Year Range: Select a range between 2015 and 2024.
• Categories: Filter by vehicle types (e.g., 2W, 3W).
• Makers: Choose specific manufacturers to analyze.

Note: Charging station data is manually entered and may not reflect the latest figures.
