A Karnataka government official told the business channel that the state is interested in inviting Tesla and has already given the company location options for different segments.

The report also states that the company, founded by Elon Musk, who is the second richest man in the world, will first launch its fully electric Model 3 Sedan in the country, which would be priced around Rs 60 lakh.
