Plus gift city. Gujarat will be in different place in next 5 years. Is it true that govt will be reducing import duty for Tesla to 15% from existing 100%?

Tesla is single handily destroying the EV market in the west and somehow it great news for people re this factory. Tesla has reduced its prices for new models by 20% which has meant a lot of people with used EVs wil never recover their investment. Along with stinging insurance and repair costs for EV, lots of people are ditching them in favour of ICE cars. So it may seem like a good thing now but this factory will close ravishingravi 1

For me the biggest issue is the increasing energy demands, especially given the vast amounts of electricity is still produced though coal. So how are they more eco friendly you say, I mean that's what the EV industry claims!

I guess it helps in a way that you can control where to have to your thermal plants and how much capacity will it happen. But same can't be said about vehicles. ravishingravi 1
ravishingravi Posted January 5, 2024 Posted January 5, 2024 (edited) I think EV is no magjc bullet for sustainable future. Thats for sure. The technology still depends lithium batteries which need alternatives. Plus they will still need electricity and it wont help if the electricity is based on coal. Nuclear is the inevitable future.

ravishingravi Posted January 19, 2024 Posted January 19, 2024 (edited) Human being are generally not good exponential projection. Incremental yes. But growth by a factor of 2 / 3, they can't fathom. That will be Gujarat in 6 years. The development of gift city has insane potential. Edited January 19, 2024 by ravishingravi

Awarded to Tatas, they prefer to work with those governments that they have dealt with earlier. CG is Chennai based, don’t know why they didn’t choose Chennai.

Haryana, Punjab sportspersons made a few more finals, another medal round today by a Haryana/Punjab team in mixed 10m air pistol. These two states will give us 5-6 medals at least by end of the games. Let us see how many from Guj. Can they justify the above table? Btw India bidding for 2036 Olympics, campaign entrusted on Ambanis, even had IOC President in their residence recently. Choice of venue, Ahmedabad 2036!!!!! In WC also they hosted the money spinner IndoPak game (despite drama about isolating Pak), and the farcical WC final. Edited July 30, 2024 by Gollum
