The Punjab Government has officially updated the PAVE Phase 2 Income Requirements 2025, giving applicants a clear guideline on the income criteria needed to qualify for subsidized electric bikes, rickshaws, and loaders under the Pakistan Accelerated Vehicle Electrification (PAVE) Program. Income verification is the most important stage of the application because the government wants to ensure that electric vehicles reach truly deserving individuals — especially low-income workers, women, students, and gig riders.

Thousands of applicants faced verification failures in Phase 1 due to incomplete income documents, mismatched bank statements, or incorrect income declarations. To avoid such issues, the government has introduced a new, simplified, and stricter income system for Phase 2.

This is the most complete guide explaining the PAVE Phase 2 Income Requirements 2025, income limits, verification methods, accepted proof documents, bank evaluation standards, and scoring rules — all designed for pavegov.com.pk.
