    Elon Musk might visit India in early 2019
  • If his tweets are to be believed, Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk is slated to visit India soon.

    Replying to a query from an Indian user on Twitter, Musk said that he'd be visiting India "probably early next year".

    Musk had earlier shown keen interest in launching Tesla's electric vehicles in India, but had blamed Indian regulations for delays.

    Here's more.

  • Musk's initial plans had included the launch of Tesla electric vehicles in India as early as the summer of 2017.

    However, he cited stringent government regulations and policies as the elements responsible for his plans getting derailed.

    In particular, Musk pointed the finger at India's foreign direct investment (FDI) norms for the delay in Tesla's entry into the Indian automobile market.

  • Tesla was slated to enter the Indian automobile market with its Model 3, priced at $35,000.

    "Maybe I'm misinformed, but I was told that 30 per cent of parts must be locally sourced and the supply does not yet exist in India to support that," Musk had tweeted, explaining the delay.

    However, Make In India's Twitter handle rubbished Musk's claims about stringent regulation.
