THE ECONOMIC TIMES
About this episode

The Tesla tease has been ongoing for India since 2019, but a renewed relationship following PM Modi’s US visit has the Elon Musk backed EV giant recharging its plans for the world’s 3rd largest auto market. With a new land lease in Pune, an Indian-origin CFO, and a rumored affordable price tag, Tesla seems to finally be gearing up for India. Host Anirban Chowdhury engages in a conversation with Hormazd Sorabjee of Autocar India, Sunjay Kapur of ACMA, Koushik Bhattacharyya of Avendus Capital, and ET’s Twesh Mishra as they separate the news from the noise to explore if India is indeed ready for Tesla. Tune in!
