Team Blitz India
NEW DELHI: Tesla will send a team to India this month to scout locations for a proposed $2 billion to $3 billion electric car plant, the Financial Times reported on April 3.
India last month lowered import taxes on certain electric vehicles produced by carmakers that commit to invest at least $500 million and start domestic manufacturing within three years.
The company will send a team from the United States by late April to study sites for the plant, with a focus on states that have automotive hubs such as Maharashtra, Gujarat and Tamil Nadu, the report said, citing people familiar with the matter.
Tesla did not respond to the queries.
