Tesla Showroom India: Full Guide to Mumbai & Delhi Exclusive Launch, Car Prices, and Setup in 2025

Tesla India Showroom: Everything You Need to Know About Its Mumbai Launch

Tesla is finally stepping into the Indian automobile market, and the wait is almost over. The company is opening its first official Tesla India showroom in Mumbai on July 15, 2025. This marks the start of Tesla’s physical presence in India, starting with two major cities—Mumbai and New Delhi.

Let’s take a closer look at all the confirmed details, locations, lease costs, and what customers can expect from Tesla’s arrival in India.

Tesla’s First India Showroom Location: Mumbai’s BKC

Tesla’s first showroom in India is located at Maker Maxity, Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC)—a top commercial district in Mumbai. This area is known for premium retail and corporate spaces. The showroom spans 4,000 square feet and is situated at Unit G 1B, 2 North Avenue inside the Maker Maxity complex.

This retail outlet is not just a display zone but a full-fledged Tesla experience center, where visitors can explore Tesla’s electric cars, especially the Model Y, learn about features, and place orders.

Lease Details: India’s Most Expensive Auto Showroom Rent

Tesla signed a five-year lease agreement for the BKC showroom in February 2025. The lease value is about ₹23.38 crore, making it the most expensive automobile showroom lease in India to date.

Here’s a quick breakdown:

Lease Detail	Value
Showroom Size	4,000 sq. ft.
Monthly Rent	₹35 lakh (approx.)
Rent per Sq. Ft.	₹881
Total Lease Value (5 years)	₹23.38 crore
Rent Escalation	5% yearly
Car Parking Spaces	2

This cost sets a national benchmark and reflects Tesla’s focus on entering India’s market with a premium approach.

Additional Setup: Office and Service Centre Nearby

Apart from the Tesla India showroom in BKC, the company has taken up two more spaces in Mumbai:

1. Tesla Office Space at Phoenix Market City, Kurla

• Type: Co-working space
• Seats: 30
• Monthly Rent: ₹3 lakh
• Lease Term: 1 year
• Lock-in Period: 3 months

Tesla’s small but focused team will manage customer support, logistics, and regional operations from this office.

2. Tesla Service Centre at Lodha Logistics Park, Kurla

• Leased Area: 24,565 sq. ft.
• Monthly Rent (Year 1): ₹37.53 lakh
• Total Lease (5 years): ₹24.38 crore
• Common Area Charges (5 years): ₹1.62 crore
• Security Deposit: ₹2.25 crore

This facility will act as the main service hub for Tesla vehicles in Mumbai. It includes two large ground-floor units with combined carpet area of over 18,000 sq. ft.

All Properties Within 10 KM Radius

All three Tesla facilities in Mumbai—the showroom in BKC, the office in Kurla, and the service center at Lodha Logistics Park—are located within a 10 km radius. This close proximity will make coordination and customer support quicker and more efficient.

Second Tesla India Showroom Coming Soon: New Delhi

Tesla is also preparing to launch a second showroom in New Delhi. The confirmed location is in Aerocity, near Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGI). Aerocity is known for high-end commercial real estate and luxury hospitality.

Details include:

City	Location	Showroom Size	Monthly Rent
New Delhi	Aerocity	~4,000 sq. ft.	₹25 lakh

The New Delhi showroom is expected to open by late July 2025.

First Tesla Models in India: Model Y

Tesla has already brought five Model Y cars into India from its Shanghai plant. These units are currently parked at the Mumbai facility and will be on display starting July 15.

Here are the key details:

Model	Tesla Model Y
Import Location	Shanghai, China
Declared Price (per unit)	₹27.7 lakh
Expected Sale Price	₹50 lakh or more (with duties)
Expected Delivery	From August 2025

The final on-road price will include 70% import tax, along with other duties, which pushes the cost higher than the U.S. pricing.

Why India, Why Now?

India is the world’s third-largest automobile market, and Tesla sees long-term growth opportunities here. EV adoption in India is gradually rising, especially in urban areas like Mumbai, Delhi, and Bengaluru.

However, Tesla delayed its entry mainly due to high import tariffs, which currently stand at 70% for fully built units under $40,000. Tesla has no local manufacturing in India yet, but future decisions may change if trade policies between India and the U.S. improve.

What Can You Do at the Tesla India Showroom?

Here’s what visitors can do once the Tesla India showroom opens to the public:

• View Tesla Model Y in person
• Ask questions to the on-ground support team
• Configure and place orders
• Understand delivery timelines
• Book test drives (in select cities)

The first week of launch will be for VIPs and partners only. The showroom will open to the general public in the third week of July.
