India declines to alter policies for Tesla, aims to attract global EV manufacturers with new laws and initiatives.

Tesla has sought tariff concessions to offset customs duties for their vehicles, but the Indian government is working on several initiatives to encourage all-electric vehicle manufacturers to set up shop in India.
