Tesla Leases 33,000 Sq Ft Space in Gurugram to Open Second Showroom in India
Tesla leases 33,000 sq ft space in Gurugram for Rs 40 lakh per month to open second showroom in India

In a significant move, Tesla India Motors and Energy Pvt Ltd has signed a 9-year lease for a 33,475 sq ft industrial-retail space at Orchid Business Park on Sohna Road, Gurugram. This marks the EV giant’s first integrated delivery hub, service center, and customer-facing store in the Delhi-NCR region, indicating Tesla is fully embracing India's electric vehicle market. The timing aligns with India's strong push for EV adoption, with supportive policies from state and central governments, expanding charging infrastructure, and encouragement of global investment. Through this lease, Tesla is not just establishing a commercial presence but also making a deliberate commitment to long-term growth, service accessibility, and localization in a market poised for substantial EV growth in the coming years.

Tesla signs 9-year lease in Gurugram at Rs 40 lakh/month for EV hub

The property's strategic location near the Sohna Elevated Road and NH-48 provides excellent road connectivity for future EV customers. With a monthly rent of around Rs 40.17 lakh, a lock-in period of three years, and a security deposit of Rs 2.41 crore, Tesla has shown serious commitment. The lease includes a 4.75% annual escalation clause, signaling long-term dedication. This Gurugram facility will serve as a flagship retail and service center in the north, complementing Tesla’s existing operations in Mumbai. The location was likely chosen for its commercial viability, space flexibility, and visibility in a fast-developing auto and IT district. Orchid Business Park already hosts several prominent tenants, and Tesla's entry is expected to further enhance the area's profile. The evolution of Sohna Road into a commercial hub, with tech parks, office spaces, and automobile showrooms, combined with infrastructure upgrades like the Delhi–Mumbai Expressway and the Sohna Elevated Road, has transformed southern Gurugram into a key real estate and business corridor.

Tesla targets India’s EV boom with strategic Gurugram investment

Tesla's investment signifies more than a real estate transaction; it reflects confidence in India's potential as a significant EV market. With increasing government support, improving EV infrastructure, and a growing urban consumer base, India is becoming increasingly appealing to global EV players. The company's physical presence could stimulate supporting industries, boost local employment, and accelerate EV adoption in the region. Choosing Gurugram, a tech-forward city, aligns with Tesla's strategy to position its operations in an area catering to early technology adopters, affluent buyers, and a growing environmentally conscious demographic.

HYDERABAD: Gopalapuram police have registered five new cases against the head of Srushti Fertility Clinic Dr Athaluri Namratha alias Pachipala Namratha, and others based on complaints lodged by five sets of victims. While in one case a couple alleged that the doctor handed them a baby whose DNA did not match theirs, three other couples accused the clinic of adopting dubious methods. They claimed that they had already paid the money — anywhere from Rs 12.5 lakh to Rs 19 lakh — and even deposited their biological samples when they grew suspicious about the operations of Dr Namratha and her clinic. The frauds occurred between 2019 and 2025. Cops are yet to ascertain details of the fifth case.
