Ya Nibba Indian Media is stupid and loves exaggeration. No company whatsoever never sets up a plant straightaway when entering a new market. Currently only a R&D centre is to be established in Bangalore. First Tesla will analyse the performance of its products and services in India then will decide to set up a Gigafactory in India or Not but no company will set up a plant anywhere in the world without analysing how feasible the particular market is. But First things First, we need a massive EV Charging station construction campaign in India as currently EV Infrastructure sucks badly in India, true its the best in the sub continent but shitty in comparison to the rest of the world.
in all probability based on India’s past record of bypassing key growth “indicators” landline internet brick and mortar banks etc, the country will directly go to home recharge with solar panels on top of the houses or apartments.

public EV recharge perhaps will not be a critical road block .

If the EVs are chinese then we should boycott it. And give him a strong message that we are OK with American or European made Teslas but not Chinese ones. Those have severe quality control issues.
Irony is that the Chinese factory built Tesla are the one with best quality and fit and finish over the US made.
German Gigafactory should start by this year end and should have the best quality of all plants.

India Inc bags 11 spots in most valuable global 500 firms list
View attachment 73529


Damn only 3 Indian companies with worth over $100 billion! Thats too low.
Even after such big presence in India, Hindustan Unilever is not $100 Billion yet!
There should be atleast 10 companies with worth more than $100 B.

Dixon is an Indian CM, BoAt is an Indian company that sells headphones under it's own brand name, they have received $100 million in funding and have said that they will relocate manufacturing of headphones to India, this twin wireless speaker contract is hopefully just the start.


Pegatron and Tata Electronics are going to setup factories in TN very soon, Pegatron is a spin-off company from Asus, and is a CM for various Electronics brands.

Relevant quote from article

Apart from Wistron, Foxconn and Pegatron are the other contract manufacturers for Apple in India. Some of Apple’s manufacturing partners are also looking to set up India operations., including Avary Holding (Shenzhen) for printed circuit boards (PCBs), BYD Electronics for iPads, Luxshare Precision Industry for AirPods, Quanta Computer for MacBooks and AT&S for printed circuit boards.

Currently, companies like Shenzhen YUTO Packaging Technology Co Ltd, Sunwoda Electronic Co Ltd, CCL Design (Suzhou) Co Ltd, SABIC Innovative Plastics and Salcomp Plc are already working to source components in India and Cheng Uei Precision Industry Co, a Taiwan-based cable and connector maker is likely to start mass production for Apple next year from its new plant in India.
