It is also looking for partners, including Chinese companies and is aiming to finalise its plans within a few months. The company, part of Anil Ambani’s Reliance Group, has hired external consultants to conduct a “cost feasibility” study for setting up an EV plant with an initial capacity of about 2,50,000 vehicles a year, to be scaled up to 7,50,000 over some years. Two sources briefed on the matter told Reuters.
