Sources familiar with the matter have said Tesla plans to start by importing and selling its Model 3 electric sedan in India.\n\"Rather than assembling (the cars) in India they should make the entire product in the country by hiring local vendors. Then we can give higher concessions,\" Gadkari said in an interview, without giving details of what incentives would be on offer.\n\"The government will make sure the production cost for Tesla will be the lowest when compared with the world, even China, when they start manufacturing their cars in India. We will assure that,\" he said.\nIndia wants to boost local manufacturing of electric vehicles (EVs), batteries and other components to cut costly imports and curb pollution in its major cities.\nThis comes amid a global race by carmakers to jump-start EV production as countries work towards cutting carbon emissions.\nBut India faces a big challenge to win a production commitment from Tesla, which did not immediately respond to an email requesting comment about its plans in the country.\nIndia's fledgling EV market accounted for just 5,000 out of a total 2.4 million cars sold in the country last year as negligible charging infrastructure and the high cost of EVs deterred buyers.\nIn contrast, China, where Tesla already makes cars, sold 1.25 million new energy passenger vehicles, including EVs, in 2020 out of total sales of 20 million, and accounted for more than a third of Tesla's global sales.\nIndia also doesn't have a comprehensive EV policy like China, the world's biggest auto market, which mandates companies to invest in the sector.\nGadkari said that as well as being a big market, India could be an export hub, especially with about 80% of components for lithium-ion batteries being made locally now.\n\"I think it's a win-win situation for Tesla,\" Gadkari said, adding he also wanted to engage with Tesla about building an ultra high-speed hyperloop between Delhi and Mumbai.\nIndia is drawing up a production-linked incentive scheme for auto and auto component makers as well as for setting up advanced battery manufacturing units, but the details are yet to be finalised.\nSwitching to cleaner sources of energy and reducing vehicle pollution are seen as essential for India to meet its Paris Accord climate commitments.\nIndia last year introduced tougher emission rules for carmakers to bring them up to international standards. It is now looking at tightening fuel efficiency rules from April 2022, which industry executives say may compel some automakers to add electric or hybrid vehicles to their portfolios.\nBattered by the COVID-19 pandemic, the industry says it needs longer to make the transition.\nGadkari said he was not directly responsible for making the decision on whether to delay, but was confident India would meet its Paris treaty commitments without disrupting economic growth.\n\"Development and environment will go hand in hand. We will take some time but we will soon reach the international standard norms,\" he said.\n(Reporting by Aftab Ahmed and Aditi Shah.
