NITI Aayog announced the launch of the Platform for Aggregating Clean Transport, or PACT, and the Zero Emission Truck marketplace at the fifth e-FAST India Summit on 7 September 2026.
Two releases describe the event. The first records NITI Aayog member Rajiv Gauba's launch and identifies fragmented logistics operations, financing costs and corridor planning as constraints. The second explains that PACT is intended to pool freight demand and help plan zero-emission truck deployment along identified corridors.
The companion release describes the ZET marketplace as a way to connect truck manufacturers, logistics providers, charging operators, financiers and technology companies.
Why we connect these records
Both name PACT, ZET, Rajiv Gauba and the same fifth e-FAST summit on the same date. Those matching event details support treating them as complementary accounts of one launch. A shared Delhi publication label would not establish that connection. Both accounts come from NITI Aayog; they are not independent corroboration.
What is confirmed
The launch announcement and the platforms' stated purposes.
What is not confirmed
A specific corridor award, a purchase order, financing eligibility or a guaranteed subsidy. We have not verified participation terms. We omit the vehicle counts because the releases use different reporting periods and measures.
Our reading, not a promised opportunity
A charging operator or fleet-software team has a named coordination initiative to investigate. The useful connection is between freight demand, charging plans and finance within PACT, supported by the companion release. It does not prove demand at a particular site. Ask for corridor details and participation requirements before treating this as a sales lead.
