Most of its EV startups and manufacturers rely on China, Korea and Japan for motors, electrical drive train, battery cells, PCB, elctronics and many core parts. India even imports electrical transformers from China, the most basic equipment for building electrical distribution network.

Indian mfg mostly are assembly and marketing company. China only recently became a manufacturer in EV and high speed train. It took over 3 decades of continuous improvements and development of close nit supply chain eco-system, India started opening up with an earlier government but with current government focusing on protective policies to enrich billionaires', it might take longer.
