Tesla India renewed focus on the Indian market
After the meeting with PM Modi, Tesla India is renewing interest in the Indian market again. Tesla has tried to enter the EV market of India but faced several challenges like high import duties. Previously, Elon Musk has also highlighted the tariff barrier. However, recently there have been changes in policy including import tax reduction on electric vehicles. This is for those companies who are committing investments in local manufacturing. Therefore, the tariff reduction and other factors encouraged Tesla to enter the EV market in India. The potential hirings are based on Mumbai and Delhi which signals the retail presence in these cities.
India’s electric vehicle market is rapidly growing. In 2025, it is projected that more electric vehicles will be launched rather than petrol/diesel ones. EV sales are expected to double by 4% as India paces towards sustainability. Already electric two-wheeler vehicles are popular in the Indian market and now four-wheelers as well. Tesla’s entry will significantly impact the rapidly growing sector. Prominent players like Mahindra, Tata Motors, and Hyundai are ruling the market and Tesla’s presence will stimulate the competition.
