Bigger Apple production in India has surely done wonders for iPhone production. This production has increased several times more in the past year, fueled by rising demand and strong sales of iPhones in India. It has become a real throttling factor for the technology marketplace.
Reasons for Growth in Investment and Production in India
For a couple of years now, the company has been attempting to move some of its manufacturing away from China, and India has now become one of the key stoppers. In reality, it has set up several companies like Foxconn, Pegatron, and Wistron, which have established factories in India. With this, Apple is now producing very large quantities of iPhones inside the country for domestic sales and exports.
Growth in iPhone Sales
As noted by some research firms, "iPhone sales in India grew tremendously in the premium smartphone segment," including Canalys and IDC. The iPhone 13, the iPhone 14, and now the newly launched iPhone 15 series have grown very popular in India. Discounts and trade-in options from such stores as Flipkart, Amazon, and, of course, its own, had enormous influences on sales.
Apple's Contribution to Make in India
While a major part of manufacturing previously happened here in India, it has also contributed to the Digital India, electronics manufacturing agenda of the Make in India program by the Indian Government, which also includes manufacturing. Currently, it is almost 70 percent in terms of manufacturing Apple iPhones in India, as opposed to around 10 to 15 percent a couple of years ago.
Newly Developed Export Horizons
Today, iPhones produced in India that are not only making it into domestic marketplaces are equally headed to proud entry into various nations all over Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Thus, today, India forms a very significant part of its supply chain all over the world.
Expansion of Stores into Indian Markets
Recently opened are its first two wholly owned retail stores, in Delhi and Mumbai. In addition to being shopping venues, they mark new pathways for customer support, training, and experience.
Along with the fact that both of these are really great advances in not just iPhone production but in sales, it has really shaken the Indian and global marketplace. That augurs very well for the future of electronics manufacturing and exports in the case of the Indian government and Apple.
