A businessman in Maharashtra filed a police complaint alleging that a Gurugram-based company, which used the name 'Tesla', cheated him of over Rs 1 crore. The company is not linked to the electric vehicle and clean energy firm owned by Elon Musk. The complaint relates to a partnership that began in October 2021, involving the sale of solar panels and batteries across Maharashtra and Goa. The partnership ended in December 2024, but the firm allegedly failed to refund the security deposit and commissions by March 2025.
