Elon Musk's Tesla appears to be making significant moves to enter the Indian automobile market, motivated by increased support from the U.S. government under President Trump. Tesla has formed a local subsidiary and is reportedly negotiating leases for showrooms in major cities like New Delhi and Mumbai. This move comes as U.S.-India relations focus on reducing trade barriers for American goods, particularly automobiles.
