Apple intends to move 10% of iPhone 12 production from China to India


According to Indian media reports, Apple intends to move 10% of iPhone 12 production from China to India, and Foxconn is already preparing the necessary production equipment.
 
So far, Apple is making some smartphones in India, with the company planning to launch the flagship iPhone 12 smartphones in that country. Foxconn will be the first to start production of the iPhone 12 in India, after which, at the end of 2021, Pegatron will also launch the iPhone 12 production in the country.
 
Prior to this, Indian media reported that Apple plans to produce the iPhone 12 series in India. Wistron is also preparing to begin the production of a new iPhone in Bangalore. With a plan to invest around $30 million, Wistron also wants to hire 10,000 employees for the new plant. The plant is expected to be fully operational by October this year, with about 1,000 new employees already joining Wistron.
 
Apple currently manufactures smartphones in India such as the iPhone 6S, iPhone 11, iPhone XR and the new iPhone SE. Several sources also indicated that Apple is pushing local manufacturing because the iPhone maker hopes to reduce its dependence on China.
 
When manufacturing locally, Apple also saves 22% of taxes on imported products.
