Will Tesla follow Apple ?............................ [ 23 May 2017 ]

Extract :
Dear Elon :
For immediate approval ( in 24 hours ) , pl submit your PMP as follows :
2017-18 :
Set up factory next to Mundra Port ( Gujarat ) to facilitate world-wide exports
2018-19 :
Source locally , Tyres / Chasis / Body / Electricals / Windows / Dashboards ..etc
2019-20 :
Manufacture in your own factory , Li-ion Battery / Wall-mounted Powerpack Storages / Solar Roof Tiles
2020-21 :
Manufacture RFID Sensors - Cameras – GPS locators
2021-22 :
Augmented Reality Devices / Autonomous Navigation Devices ( Radar – Lidar )
Now
, it is very possible that neither Shri Gadkariji , nor Shri Goyalji ,
would be satisfied with such a slow PMP , spread out over a period of 5
years
They may , well request Elon to cut it down to 3 years
Reducing
custom duty ( from current 110 % to 40 % - as requested by TESLA and
some other foreign manufacturers , would not make any dent in India’s
Electric car market, as can be seen from :
To beat OR not to beat ?........................... [ 29 Dec 2020 ]

At the most , those imported cars ( selling for Rs 40 lakh + , even with 40 % duty
), could have sold 3,000 numbers out of Indian market of 3 MILLION !
That is not the point
Point is simple :
Ø TESLA must come to India with a firm commitment for Local Manufacture
Ø There was nothing difficult for TESLA to accept the Phased Manufacturing
Program suggested by me above, some 5 YEARS back
Ø The PMP announced by GOI, last week ( shown above ) is almost
IDENTICAL to my 2017 proposal
