Tesla has no plans to manufacture vehicles in India, opting instead to focus on importing cars, according to the country's heavy industries minister. Despite India's efforts to attract Tesla with reduced import taxes for local EV production, Elon Musk paused investment plans last year. Other automakers like Mercedes-Benz and Hyundai are exploring manufacturing in India under similar policies. The situation highlights the ongoing debate over import tariffs and foreign investment in India's electric vehicle sector.
