Tesla has appointed Indian-origin Vaibhav Taneja as its Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as the organization plans to make India its next key source of a new supplier ecosystem. According to media reports, Mr. Taneja will assume the CFO position in addition to his present duties as the Chief Accounting Officer. 

However, the development comes at a time when Tesla has reportedly held discussions with Indian government officials to bring its auto parts and electronics chain to the country in the near future.
