Apple Shifts iPhone Production from China to India Amid U.S. and Trump Policies

India is rapidly expanding its high-end manufacturing sector, notably with Foxconn's new $2.5 billion iPhone plant near Bengaluru, aiming to produce up to 30% of iPhones domestically by 2025. This development aligns with India's broader 'Make in India' initiative to create jobs and reduce reliance on Chinese manufacturing, though it still imports key components. The growth of manufacturing in India is transforming local economies, attracting global firms, and providing new employment opportunities, but challenges remain in developing a fully self-sufficient supply chain.

The new facility is expected to be operational by late 2024 and may help reduce the cost of Apple smartphones due to increased local production.
