Siddharth Jain, the Executive Director of INOX Group, has become the proud owner of a Tesla electric car and is calling it a dream come true. Sharing the big news on social media, Jain said he had been waiting for this moment ever since he visited Tesla’s Fremont factory back in 2017. He even called it India Inc’s first Tesla and tagged Elon Musk in his post. What caught everyone’s attention was not just the sleek new car, but also the fact that Musk himself responded.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Jain wrote, “This one’s for you, Elon Musk. I am beyond thrilled to receive India Inc’s 1st Tesla. I have been waiting for this precious moment ever since I visited the Tesla Fremont factory in 2017. Dreams do come true.”
A few days after Siddharth
Jain proudly posted a picture with his brand new Tesla Y. The company’s CEO, Elon Musk, noticed the post and took a moment to respond. Musk kept it short and simple but made a big impact by writing “Congrats.” His reply added more buzz to Jain’s announcement and many called it a special moment.
Congrats! https://t.co/w5VxjoscqV
