According to an HT.com report citing Bloomberg, Tesla has already shipped five Model Y units from its Shanghai plant to Mumbai. Each vehicle was declared at ₹27.7 lakh (approximately $31,988), but steep import duties of over ₹21 lakh per unit, due to India’s 70% tariff on fully built imported cars, significantly increase the cost.

According to property registration documents accessed by CRE Matrix, Tesla took 4,000 sq ft of showroom space in India's costliest commercial district, BKC, in Mumbai, for ₹23.38 crore for five years in February 2025. The space has been taken on rent by Tesla along with two car parking spaces, and the per sq ft rent works out to be ₹881, the documents showed. The amount sets a national record in terms of lease rentals and makes it the most expensive auto showroom lease deal in the country by far, experts have said. The showroom space has been rented out in a commercial building named Maker Maxity on North Avenue.

Tesla has also secured 30 seats in a managed office space near Mumbai's Bandra Kurla Complex, the most expensive business district in India. According to sources, the space has a monthly rent of ₹3 lakh. The 30 seats are leased in a co-working office located in Phoenix Market City with a rent of ₹3 lakh per month. The lease agreement is for one year and comes with a three-month lock-in period.

The starting monthly rent is over ₹37.53 lakh for the first year, with a 5% annual escalation, bringing the total rent over the five-year lease period to more than ₹24 crore. In addition, Tesla will pay ₹1.62 crore in common area maintenance charges over five years and has provided a security deposit of ₹2.25 crore, according to the documents.
