"Tesla has hired Sharad Agarwal, who was formerly employed by the Italian luxury carmaker, to run its operations in India. With Lamborghini, he was employed to handle operations in India.

Agarwal will be stationed in India and will handle the company's operations."
"Tesla launches in India with Model Y, showing pricing will be biggest challenge. Tesla has gone through quite a few different team members with its launch in India, starting with a few hirings a few years ago, well before the company actually committed to selling cars in the country. The move helps Tesla streamline its executive decision-making process, as it previously had employees in India reach out to managers based in China, among other areas."
Tesla appointed Sharad Agarwal, a former Lamborghini India operations executive, to run its India operations and be permanently stationed in the country. The hiring aims to create local leadership and streamline executive decision-making that previously relied on managers in China and other regions. Tesla previously assigned Isabel Fan temporarily but sought a dedicated India lead. The company launched the Model Y in India, where pricing presents a major challenge. Tesla attempted to enter India for nearly a decade, including talks to reduce import duties and meetings with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but earlier efforts did not succeed.
