CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: Apple continues to strengthen its manufacturing footprint in India, with over 3 million ‘Made in India’ iPhones shipped during the January to March 2025 quarter. This milestone highlights Apple’s growing reliance on India as a key production hub, driven by the company’s strategy to diversify its supply chain beyond China.
The surge in shipments reflects increased local production from partners like Foxconn, Wistron, and Pegatron, which have been ramping up operations in India due to favorable government policies under the PLI (Production Linked Incentive) scheme. Notably, this growth is also aligned with rising domestic demand for iPhones in India, alongside strong exports to Europe and other Asian markets.
Apple’s commitment to local assembly not only contributes to employment and technology transfer but also strengthens India’s position as a global electronics manufacturing hub. Industry experts see this as a significant leap toward India’s vision of becoming a preferred destination for high-end electronics production. The success of Apple’s India strategy in early 2025 could inspire other tech giants to expand their manufacturing operations in the country, signaling a new era for India’s electronics sector.
