The Tesla Model Y costs ₹70 lakh in India. In the US, it’s just ₹32L. In China, ₹30L. So why are Indians paying more than double? Don’t blame Nirmala Tai for this. In 2024, the Indian government introduced a game-changing EV policy. Import duties were slashed from 85% to 15% but with one condition: The company had to invest ₹4,150 Cr and set up a factory in India. VinFast from Vietnam agreed. They’re building a ₹16,000 Cr plant in Tamil Nadu right now. Tesla? They pushed hard for this exact policy. And when they finally got it… they backed out. No factory. No investment. Nothing for India. Just fully imported Teslas with full duties slapped on. If Tesla had committed, the Model Y could’ve launched at ₹40–45L. But they didn’t — and now you’re paying ₹70L, without even full autopilot. This isn’t just overpricing. This is Tesla playing you.
