Tesla means a supercar. The craze may have waned in America, but the craze among indians is still there. Why hasn't it come to india so far? The reason for this is that the central government has made it a condition to build a plant in india first. tesla, on the other hand, has proposed that they will first produce abroad and introduce it in india, and then set up a plant. Finally, after prime minister Modi's visit to America this year, the path has been paved for tesla to enter India. tesla, owned by world tycoon Elon Musk, is making its entry into India. It will set up its first showroom in the financial capital of india, Mumbai. It will start on Tuesday, the 15th of this month. It is expected that the showroom will be opened in the most expensive Bandra Kurla Complex in Mumbai.
Tesla's Y' model cars have already reached Mumbai. They were moved from the financial capital of China, Shanghai. After Mumbai, tesla will set up a second showroom in the indian capital, Delhi. There was a campaign that tesla would enter india in 2021. However, there was a lot of pressure to reduce the import tax on electric vehicles (EVs). If so, tesla demanded a lot of reduction in import tax. If so, the Center imposed a condition that the company would only manufacture in india (Make in India) and buy spare parts. The process was stopped when Musk did not agree to this. Modi completed the negotiations with Musk during his US tour. The basic customs duty on high-end cars costing more than Rs. 34 lakh (40 thousand dollars) was reduced.
