Meanwhile, Tesla has yet to signal significant interest in setting up a manufacturing base in the country, with its recent job openings consisting of mostly consumer-facing positions.
Additionally, geopolitical barriers may influence Telsa's decision to produce cars in India under the new Donald Trump administration. In an interview alongside Tesla CEO Elon Musk last week, President Trump said that Tesla manufacturing in India would be "very unfair."
The company has also been working on completing the production of manufacturing plants in Germany and Texas.
