Tesla will open its first India showroom in Mumbai next week, having imported $1 million worth of cars and merchandise, marking its entry into the world's third-largest car market despite CEO Elon Musk's complaints about high import tariffs.

Tesla will open its first showroom in India on July 15th, as India's import duties on EVs were reduced, boosting Musk's ambitions.

Ending months of speculation over its entry into the Indian market, Tesla is set to inaugurate its showroom in Mumbai's Bandra Kurla Complex business district on July 15.
