Tata Takes Over iPhone Manufacturing in India
New Delhi: In a groundbreaking move, Tata has acquired the manufacturing rights for iPhones in India, signaling a significant boost for both the domestic and global markets. The announcement was made by Union Minister of State for Electronics and IT, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, who stated that construction work will commence shortly.
Apple’s subsidiary, iPhone Company, which is an esteemed supplier for Apple’s products, operates under the banner of Wistron. With Tata’s recent acquisition of shares, the path has been paved for iPhone manufacturing to thrive within Indian borders. The decision was unanimously passed at a Wistron company board meeting held in Taiwan only yesterday, representing a major shift away from dependence on Chinese production.
As part of their strategic plans to decentralize manufacturing, Apple aims to produce 25 percent of its global units in India within the next four years. In order to expedite this process, Tata will assume control of the Wistron Corporation’s factory located in Karnataka. This facility is already responsible for the production of some Apple components and employs approximately a thousand workers. Both Wistron and Foxconn, Taiwanese companies entrusted with the manufacturing contracts for Apple products, boast manufacturing units in India. Emphasizing the positive implications of this development, Union Minister Rajeev Chandrasekhar commended Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s farsighted initiatives in transforming the nation into a reliable and prominent hub for manufacturing and exporting smartphones.
With this strategic collaboration, the dream of iPhone manufacturing in India will become a reality in just two and a half years. We extend heartfelt congratulations to the Tata team for their successful acquisition of the operations of Wistron Company. Undoubtedly, this new collaboration will play a pivotal role in establishing India as a key component within Apple’s global supply chain. The Union Ministry of Electronics wholeheartedly supports the growth and expansion of electronics companies within the country.
Furthermore, the government is committed to extending its support towards global electronic brands seeking to make India their trusted and reliable manufacturing partner. Rajeev Chandrasekhar reiterated the government’s aim to fulfill the Prime Minister’s vision of positioning India as a leading global electronics powerhouse.
