Snap-E Cabs, an on-demand, app-based fleet of electric vehicles, has announced collaborations with Mufin Green Finance, Mahindra & Mahindra Finance, ICICI and HDFC finance to strengthen its fleet of eco-friendly cabs in Kolkata.
These strategic alliances are in line with Snap-E Cabs’ expansion plans for FY ’24, aiming at entry into newer markets of Bhubaneswar and Raipur while doubling the fleet count too.
Mufin Green Finance has partnered with Snap-E Cab to provide a fleet of 100 Tata Tigor cars on lease for 5 years.

After the 5-year lease term, Snap E Cab can buy back these vehicles from Mufin Green Finance.
Similarly, Mahindra & Mahindra Finance has collaborated with Snap-E Cab to lease 50 Tata Tigor cars for a duration of 3 years. At the end of the 3-year lease period, Snap E Cab will have the opportunity to purchase these cars from Mahindra & Mahindra Finance.
Additionally, ICICI and HDFC Finance have partnered with Snap-E Cab to provide another set of 50 Tata Tigor cars in total. This collaboration will further augment the Snap E Cab fleet in Kolkata, reaching 600 cabs.
