Elon Musk Confirms India Visit in 2025 After Call with PM Modi
Date: 19-apr-2025
Tech billionaire Elon Musk has confirmed that he will visit India later this year after a recent conversation with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The announcement has sparked renewed excitement about Tesla and Starlink's long-anticipated entry into the Indian market.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Musk wrote, “It was an honour to speak with PM Modi. I am looking forward to visiting India later this year!”
🤝 A Strengthening Tech Partnership
The conversation reportedly touched on a wide range of subjects including technology, innovation, and renewable energy. PM Modi also acknowledged the discussion on X, stating that he and Musk discussed ways to leverage India’s tech talent and digital potential.
This is not the first time the two leaders have interacted. Musk previously met PM Modi during the latter’s visit to Washington, D.C., where they laid the groundwork for potential collaborations involving Tesla, SpaceX, and Starlink.
🚗 Tesla’s India Debut May Be Closer Than Ever
The confirmation of Musk’s visit has fueled speculation that Tesla may finally be setting up operations in India. Reports suggest that Tesla is preparing to ship its vehicles to a port near Mumbai in the coming months as a precursor to launching in the country.
India recently reduced import duties on electric vehicles under a new EV policy aimed at attracting global manufacturers. Musk’s visit could potentially coincide with official Tesla announcements or even groundbreaking events for local facilities.

Musk’s visit could help fast-track regulatory processes and finalize groundwork for large-scale connectivity projects in partnership with local providers.
🌍 Global Significance
India is one of the world’s fastest-growing EV markets and a strategic hub for global tech innovation. Musk’s engagement with Indian leadership signals the growing importance of India in the global energy and technology narrative.
As one user on social media put it, “Musk isn’t just visiting India—he’s plugging into its future.”
What to Expect Next?
While no official dates for Musk’s visit have been announced, insiders suggest it may align with an upcoming trade summit or EV expo in the second half of 2025. Industry watchers are now closely monitoring Tesla and Starlink’s next moves as India prepares to welcome one of the world’s most influential innovators.
