Asia’s battery supply chain has led to a big revolution as Tenpower has just started their operations in their technologically advanced all-new manufacturing unit in Selangor, Malaysia. This strategic advancement will enhance India's fastest growing sustainable electric mobility and energy sectors, thus making Indian manufacturers a mainstream source of lithium-ion supply.

How will this benefit India? 

The official commencement of Tenpower’s Malaysia Production is according to India's electrification goals and recently sanctioned agreement between India-Malaysia Free Trade Agreement (FTA). This strategic amalgamation will lead to a lot of benefits for Indian Battery manufacturers and OEMs:

  • There is a special exemption of 25% provided by India’s annual budget, in which 5.5% is allocated on EV battery imports, but it is unstable as this allocation can be cancelled anytime, thus making FTA Malaysian Imports with zero tariff benefits.
  • As nearly 68% of the world's battery production is located in China, Tenpower Malaysia will supply India with a geographical advantage and options for market diversification.
  • There will be significantly less shipping times now and seamless customs through smooth FTA channels.
  • There will be a US export advantage as for Indian battery pack exporters focussing on US markets will have a choice for constructing Malaysia-developed cells, thus giving them an extra alternative to align with US trade policies.
