Nagpur Mahanagar Parivahan Limited is a special purpose vehicle of the Nagpur Municipal Corporation to run transport services within Nagpur city.[2]

Operations[edit]

In 2007, the Nagpur Municipal Corporation signed an agreement with a private party to purchase the buses and operate them under a 'Purchase-Operate-Transfer' model and pay the corporation a fixed royalty per bus. The corporation was also to earn back 50% of its revenue from advertisements on buses.[3]

In 2013, it was announced that the Government of India would fund the corporations plans of building a new bus station at Mor Bhavan and a depot at Dhaba along with the provision of purchasing more buses.[4]

Fleet[edit]

An NMPL bus

As of now it has a fleet of 437 buses. They run in and around city and suburbs. In 2014, Swedish bus manufacturer Scania AB announced that it would hand over the first ethanol-powered city bus made in India to the Nagpur Municipal Corporation on the recommendation of Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister for Transport, for trial runs.[5] The Ministry requested clearance from the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) in order to amend the Motor Vehicles Act of 1988 to legally recognise ethanol as a commercial fuel type.[6]
