The company is currently carrying out test runs of about 50 electric scooters across various towns in the country.
"We are working on introducing electric scooters and these are being experimented for the launch. By some time next fiscal, it will come (to the market)," TVS Motor Company president (marketing) H S Goindi told reporters in New Delhi.
About 50 electric scooters, comprising some of its existing and new models, are being tested across the country, he added.
"We will launch only scooters in electric mode. The products will initially run on lead acid batteries and later we may develop some other technology also," Goindi said.
The company will produce these new products at its Mysore facility, he said.
Asked about the electric two-wheeler market, Goindi said: "Business in India picked up few years back and also dropped because of variety of issues. Now, subsidy has also been offered, but still it is very sketchy... We feel, business will again pick up."
Earlier, TVS had launched electric scooterette 'Scooty Teenz Electric' in April 2008 with high hopes of selling around 40,000
"We have an electric three-wheeler, which we had planned to introduce but there is no market for such products. So we don't have any plans to launch it now," Goindi had said in June 2010.
The Budget for 2011-12 proposed to set up a National Mission for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles to encourage manufacturing and selling of alternative fuel-based vehicles.
It also proposed to cut excise duty on development and manufacturing of hybrid vehicle kits to 5 per cent from the existing 10 per cent, besides fully exempting customs and counter-vailing duty on import of special hybrid parts.
In November last year, the government had announced a Rs 95 crore (Rs 950-million) incentive package for the electric vehicle makers for the remaining part of the 11th plan.
