A moment of pride for Meerut — Sharad Agarwal, a distinguished name in India’s automobile industry and a native of the city, has been appointed as the Country Head for Tesla India.
The U.S.-based electric vehicle giant has chosen him to spearhead its long-awaited India operations, signaling a strong push towards strengthening its presence in one of the world’s fastest-growing EV markets.
Sharad Agarwal’s journey is an inspiring story of ambition and achievement. Hailing from Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, he began his career in the automotive sector over two decades ago and gradually rose through the ranks of India’s luxury car market. His latest appointment by Tesla Inc. marks yet another milestone and a proud moment for his hometown.
Tesla’s move to appoint a dedicated India head is being seen as a major shift in strategy. Until now, the company’s operations were largely supervised remotely by its Asia-Pacific team. With Agarwal taking charge, Tesla is showing a clear commitment to establishing a local base and a long-term growth plan in India.
Back home in Meerut, the news has sparked excitement and pride. Local residents and business circles are celebrating Agarwal’s appointment as a shining example of how homegrown talent can rise to global leadership. His story is now being shared widely — not just as a professional success, but as an inspiration for the city’s youth.
