Elon Musk's electric car maker Tesla, which has been actively exploring opportunities to enter the Indian market, is opening a showroom in Mumbai’s upscale business district Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) to sell its imported cars. Tesla has plans to set up a manufacturing plant in Maharashtra.

But Indian automaker don't seem to be scared of Musk's India venture. JSW Group Chairman Sajjan Jindal has doubted Musk’s ability to crack the Indian market, asserting that local giants Tata Motors and Mahindra & Mahindra are now deeply entrenched. JSW Group has a JV with China's SAIC Motor, JSW MG Motor India Pvt. Ltd, which sells EVs such as MG Comet EV, MG ZS EV, MG Windsor EV, MG 4 EV, and MG M9 EV. It is planning to launch several new EV models in 2025, including the Cyberster, an electric sports car. India's EV sales are merely 2.5% of the total passenger vehicle sales. Can Indian EV makers take on the world's biggest EV brand while they are still in their infancy?

markets Provident Manufacturing economy Food Trade country India's economic growth pegged at 6.5% for FY26 despite Trump tariff threat: CRISIL

CRISIL. The forecast rests on two key assumptions: the continuation of normal monsoon patterns and soft commodity prices. CRISIL expects that these factors, coupled with cooling food inflation, tax benefits outlined in the Union Budget 2025-2026, and lower borrowing costs, will stimulate discretionary consumption. «India’s resilience is being tested again. Over the past few years, we have built a few safe harbours against exogenous shocks — healthy economic growth, low current account deficit and external public debt, and adequate forex reserves — which provide ample policy latitude. So, while the waters can turn choppy, consumption-led rural and urban demand will be crucial to short-term growth. On the other hand, continuing investments and efficiency gains will aid in the medium term. We foresee both manufacturing and services supporting growth through fiscal 2031,» said Amish Mehta, Managing Director and CEO of CRISIL.
