INDIA NEWS | Wed, 4 Nov 2026, 5:33AM IST Tesla has misled tens of thousands of South Korean customers by marketing driver-assistance software that the company knows cannot be legally used in most of its vehicles in the country, according to a complaint an advocacy group plans to file with a consumer protection agency on Thursday.Tesla has marketed Full Self-Driving (Supervised) software to prospective buyers in South Korea for years, often collecting lump-sum payments of 9.043 million won ($6,726).FSD can be used on about 20% of Tesla vehicles registered in South Korea - those manufactured in the US, Tesla Korea country manager Seo Young-deuk said in parliamentary testimony last month. Those cars meet US vehicle-safety standards that South Korea recognizes as part of a free trade agreement, according to the forthcoming complaint to the Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC), seen by Reuters.The complaint to the regulator, which also handles antitrust, has not been previously reported.Most Tesla vehicles in South Korea, however, are manufactured in China, where no such agreement exists. Tesla only recently started the process for obtaining FSD certification for China-made vehicles, despite charging customers for the software for more than three years.SOUTH KOREAN TRADE COMMISSION INVESTIGATINGIt is unclear how many South Korean customers purchased FSD subscriptions on ineligible vehicles, but Tesla has sold more than 170,000 Shanghai-produced vehicles in South Korea since 2023, according to Tesla data sent to South Korea's National Assembly."Tesla generated substantial revenue by selling an expensive driver-assistance system to mass-market buyers who cannot use it for even a single day," said Choi Young-suk, who leads automotive issues at the advocacy group Citizens United for Consumer Sovereignty.Tesla did not respond to requests for comment. A KFTC official said the agency launched a probe earlier this year into Tesla's advertising of its FSD system and has received written responses from the company, but declined to provide further details.Tesla continued to market FSD as sales of ineligible China-manufactured Teslas surged in South Korea in recent years. Sales of FSD-incompatible Teslas made in China grew more than fivefold in South Korea from 2023 through last year, when 99% of new Teslas sold in South Korea could not legally use FSD, according to data Tesla submitted to the National Assembly.Despite years of promises from CEO Elon Musk that all Teslas would soon become fully driverless vehicles, FSD is not autonomous and requires active human supervision.Tesla has sought to expand FSD's reach beyond North America, particularly in Europe, where the company has waged a pressure campaign against European regulators.TESLA SALES SURGE IN SOUTH KOREATesla surpassed BMW this year as South Korea's top imported-car brand, according to South Korean import data.Tesla sold FSD for one-time payments for years, before shifting to a monthly subscription of 150,000 won ($112) in August.The complaint alleges that Tesla promoted FSD last year as "coming soon" and posted a demonstration video filmed in South Korea without clearly disclosing that the technology could only be used in a small fraction of Teslas being sold.Tesla knew those limitations but continued to market the software to all customers, the complaint said.Tesla Korea manager Seo testified during an October 8 parliamentary hearing that the company had not formally requested FSD testing from the transport ministry. Two weeks later, Tesla applied for certification.The ministry said FSD does not comply with local safety rules, including requirements for drivers to keep their hands on the wheel, according to a statement it sent to a lawmaker, reviewed by Reuters. The transport ministry could not be reached for comment.The consumer group accused Tesla Korea of deceptive marketing and asked the KFTC to issue a temporary cease-and-desist order on marketing FSD for ineligible vehicles, impose administrative fines and refer the case to state investigators.

INDIA NEWS | Wed, 4 Nov 2026, 1:00AM IST Mumbai: Tata Motors and Iveco Group are aiming to build a global commercial vehicle business focused on growth rather than consolidation, N Chandrasekaran, chairman, Tata Sons, said on Tuesday, outlining the rationale behind the transatlantic deal.The $4.32 billion acquisition of the Italian truck and bus maker marked the biggest overseas deal for Tata Motors in the CV segment and the largest by a Tata Group automotive entity since the 2008 acquisition of Jaguar Land Rover from Ford Motor Company for $2.3 billion. "This should not be seen as a consolidation effort," said Chandrasekaran, also the chairman of Tata Motors and Iveco Group, at a press conference in Turin. "This is about the future."Also read: Indian auto's real test lies ahead after firecracker start to festive season135512105Announced July 30, 2025, the Iveco deal got completed on October 30, 2026, with Tata Motors announcing settlement of its tender offer, securing an 89.42% stake in the CV maker and making it an indirect unit. Remaining steps towards acquiring the balance stake and delisting Iveco are underway.The combined entity will have annual revenues of about $24 billion and sales volume of nearly 600,000 vehicles, with a presence in more than 130 countries, over 73,000 employees and 9,300 sales and service touchpoints.Girish Wagh, managing director and chief executive of Tata Motors said the companies' complementary geographical presence offered significant opportunities. While Tata Motors brings leadership in India and a growing presence in Asia, the Middle East and Africa, Iveco has established operations across Europe and Latin America, he said. "The opportunity is not to make one organisation more like the other," he said. "It is to bring out the best in both."Also read: Tata Projects wins contract to build global automaker's plant in MaharashtraChandrasekaran expects volumes and revenues in the combined enterprise to grow significantly in the coming five years, alongside an improvement in margins. He didn't provide specific targets, saying the management teams would outline the business plan.A key area of collaboration will be bringing Iveco vehicles to India and leveraging Tata Motors' platforms for international markets. Chandrasekaran said some Iveco products identified as relevant to India would initially be introduced through semi-knocked-down manufacturing and subsequently localised."It is not simply about greater scale or wider footprint," said Wagh. "It is about the new possibilities that this footprint creates, giving us a significantly greater runway for growth across markets, products and technologies."He also pointed to opportunities in components and batteries, while Tata Motors' platforms could be taken to other markets through Iveco. On powertrains, Chandrasekaran said Iveco's FPT engine business could expand into industrial applications across India, Africa and Asia, leveraging Tata Motors' distribution network. Tata Motors will, however, continue its more than three-decade-old joint venture in India with Cummins for heavy commercial vehicle engines.Tata Motors and Iveco will also collaborate on electric and hydrogen technologies, connected vehicles, software-led platforms and decarbonisation. Post acquisition, Iveco will retain its headquarters in Turin, Chandrasekaran said, reiterating the group's commitment to its existing industrial footprint.Wagh said the combination would bring together the companies' strengths in engineering, frugal product development and technology.

INDIA NEWS | Wed, 4 Nov 2026, 12:51AM IST Mumbai: Advance bookings in India for The Ramayana: Part 1, one of India's most ambitious and expensive film franchises, are falling short of trade expectations, with analysts and distributors telling ET that ticket sales remain underwhelming despite its marquee cast, grand scale and blockbuster budgets.Sacnilk data showed the film had grossed nearly 80 crore in advance bookings across India as of 5 pm on November 3, including block bookings, with actual ticket sales at around 64 crore and average theatre occupancy at just 14%. Trade analysts had estimated advance bookings of close to 200 crore given its budget range of 700-1,000 crore. In 2026, big-budget Hindi films such as Dhurandhar 2, Drishyam 3 and Border 2 recorded advance ticket collection in the range of 12-52 crore. The muted advance sales suggest audiences are adopting a wait-and-watch approach despite the film's scale and star power, they said.Distributors attributed the muted advance bookings largely to a lack of strong audience buzz around the film. "The widely quoted advance ticket sales figures are inflated. Bookings are much lower than that," explained Shaaminder Malik, a distributor and film business expert. "Also, these figures are still below expectations given the film's budget. High-ticket prices are also a dampener," he added.The film ticket price has been pegged in the range of 300-3,000 depending upon the screen format, shared analysts. The film is reported to be releasing on about 59,000 screens globally-9,000 screens in India and 50,000 screens outside India. In India, the film faces no competition for at least two weeks after its release."The Ramayana: Part 1 is a solo release. This is a big advantage. If the film connects with audiences, then it can work wonders," observed producer Girish Johar. Three aspects of the film have fuelled debate and shaped pre-release audience sentiment, with its music emerging as a key concern. Film scholars said the soundtrack has failed to resonate with audiences."The Ramayana's appeal lies in evoking bhakti rasa or a devotional mood through music. Not a single song from the film has really resonated with audiences," observed Piyush Roy, dean, school of film, media & creative arts, RV University, Bangalore. "The makers could have used folk and bhakti songs from India's rich tradition to evoke the Bhakti Rasa." The film's visual effects (VFX) have also come under scrutiny, with viewers raising questions about their quality and execution."Judging from its trailer, the film's VFX quality does not reflect its huge budget. An epic like The Ramayana cannot rely entirely on VFX. Generally, audiences experience fatigue with VFX-heavy films," said an editor requesting anonymity.

But the Commerce Department has yet to approve the new licenses, the people said.Its Solidigm unit plans to invest about $45 billion and build two NAND plants in Marcy, New York, two people said, with investment potentially reaching about $100 billion over time.

The company needs to ramp up production and develop more sophisticated NAND chipmaking in China to generate revenue to build a US facility and to stay competitive, the people said.In a meeting last week, Commerce Under Secretary Jeffrey Kessler held to his position that the US would not allow more American chipmaking tools to upgrade or expand capacity, the person said, though the department has not formally denied a license to export American equipment to fill empty clean space in Dalian. The two sides are also negotiating a separate license for 2027 for equipment to keep up the Dalian facility, the person said.A spokesperson for the Department of Commerce did not immediately respond to a request for comment.In a statement last week, Solidigm said: "As a US-founded and headquartered company, Solidigm regularly evaluates strategic alternatives to best serve its customers and enhance its long-term competitiveness. The company is currently exploring options for building a NAND memory fab at potential locations around the world. No decision regarding any specific course of action has been made."
