Musk revealed via a post on X platform on April 10 that he is eagerly anticipating a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his visit.
This visit is widely interpreted as a significant step toward bringing Tesla, the electric vehicle (EV) giant, to India, consequently leading to a surge in the shares of Indian companies that supply parts to Tesla.
Last year in June, after meeting with PM Modi in New York, Elon Musk expressed confidence in Tesla’s entry into India at the earliest opportunity. It is anticipated that during his forthcoming visit, Musk will unveil plans for an ambitious project to establish a factory in India.
Reports suggest that Tesla may invest up to $3 billion in setting up a factory for manufacturing entry-level electric cars locally. These cars, speculated to be the Model 2, could be priced around Rs 25 lakh.
Musk’s visit is viewed as a positive sign of Tesla’s entry into India, especially following the recent unveiling of India’s electric vehicle policy, which offers concessions to foreign carmakers selling fully imported cars in India but committing to local manufacturing.

Varroc Engineering has already supplied lighting systems for Tesla vehicles, positioning itself as a key player if Tesla decides to establish a manufacturing plant in India.
