Till a few years ago, if someone asked where the most iPhones are made in the world, the answer would be China. But now the story has completely changed. india has turned the game around. apple is now making india the new stronghold of iphone manufacturing and its figures will fill any indian with pride.
iPhone's new journey from india to America
Recently released figures show that in the month of april alone, india sent 29 lakh iPhones to America. This figure is a record in itself. If compared to last year, this is a tremendous increase of 76%. On the other hand, China's position seems to be weakening. During the same period, only 9 lakh iPhones went from china to America, whereas last year this figure was 37 lakh i.e. a decline of 76%.
Now Apple's eyes are on India
apple CEO Tim Cook has already indicated that the company is looking at india and vietnam as its manufacturing hubs. apple plans to manufacture iPhones in india in the coming times and other products like Mac, apple Watch and iPod in Vietnam. It is also possible that most of the iPhones sold in the US in the future will be made in India.
Will India's dominance be seen in iphone 17?
According to sources, the manufacturing of the Pro model of the iphone 17 series can be further increased in India. Given the huge demand for the Pro model in the US, apple may give more priority to india for this work.
india becomes the new manufacturing superpower
Under the 'Make in India' initiative, many partner companies of apple have set up factories in india and now its effect is also visible. The company is not only making india a manufacturing hub, but is also including special features for the customers here in its new software. Where china was once the sole king in iphone production, now india has snatched that crown on the basis of hard work, strategy and policy. In the coming times, india will emerge as a big name in technology manufacturing and this is the beginning of that golden future.
