Just days after Elon Musk tweeted that his company was “working through a lot of challenges” with the Indian government, officials suggested that the Centre wants a firm commitment from Tesla on local manufacturing of electrical vehicles in line with its Make in India vision.

According to reports, the Centre has expressed reservation over the company's view that it could begin with local sourcing of components before shifting to manufacturing in India.

But, there's action beyond the Centre's caveat on local manufacturing.
