Vietnam's Vingroup, primarily through its electric vehicle (EV) arm VinFast, is actively looking to expand its presence in India. 

While they are already establishing a significant manufacturing plant in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu, with a $2 billion investment, they are also in discussions with the governments of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana to explore further opportunities and potentially set up additional facilities.

"We visited several states and inspected multiple locations...before finally zeroing in on Thoothukudi in Tamil Nadu because of the logistical advantages it offers... with a port and airport nearby," VinFast Asia CEO Pham Sanh Chau said. 

The launch of VF7 and VF6 -- likely before the festival season this year --will mark the entry of Vingroup, one of the leading conglomerates of Vietnam, into the Indian market.

Apart from Tamil Nadu, negotiations are underway with Telangana and Andhra Pradesh governments to set up facilities there
