Lithium sourcing a risk: Bhargava on EV batteries
Financial Express Kochi
|August 27, 2025
THE RISK ASSOCIATED with sourcing of lithium due to over-dependence on China as the single source is one of the reasons for investors not investing in battery cell manufacturing in India in a major way, Maruti Suzuki India chairman RC Bhargava said on Tuesday.
Speaking at the sidelines of the beginning of exports of Maruti Suzuki India's first electric vehicle e-VITARA to 100 countries, and also the inauguration of production of lithium-ion battery cells for strong hybrid electric vehicles at its facility here, Bhargava expressed hope that Indian scientists would be able to come up with technologies that can solve reliance on external supplies.
