Elon Musk said that Tesla cars would not be manufactured in India unless the government grants its two requests. It was reported that Indian leaders had appealed multiple times to bring the Tesla vehicles to the country.
As per Fox Business, the Tesla CEO said that it would only make the EVs in India if it allows them to sell and service their electric cars. It was revealed that the Indian government prohibited the company from selling and servicing its EVs.
Musk said via social media post that the manufacturing of Tesla cars in India will not happen due to the current rules in the country. He made the statement after a Twitter user asked him if Tesla will make EVs in India in the future.
Musk tweeted in reply, "Tesla will not put a manufacturing plant in any location where we are not allowed first to sell and service cars."
Since Tesla will not produce its electric vehicles in a plant in India, the Indian team that was hired by Musk last year was told to shift their focus to the bigger markets such as the Asia-Pacific.
As published in a local Indian publication, Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari said during the Raisina Dialogue 2022 conference in April, "Our request to him is to come to India and manufacture here. We have no problems and the vendors are available, we offer all kinds of technology and because of that, Musk can reduce the cost."
He added that their country is a huge market that offers good export opportunities, and Elon Musk can easily export the Tesla cars from India. But apparently, the Tesla chief also wants to sell locally and not just export the EVs that will be made there.
Indian Express reported that Tesla had entered the Indian market, but its operation has been on hold since 2019. This is because the EV maker has been requesting for lower customs duty on imported electric vehicles. But rather than accepting the request at once, the Indian government ask the company to set up its production base in India.
