"Apple's Shift: From China to India for iPhone Manufacturing"

China's long-standing dominance in manufacturing Apple's iPhones is being challenged as India's production increases, with Apple now making 14% of its devices in India. Geopolitical tensions, rising costs in China, and India's attractive manufacturing incentives are prompting Apple to diversify its supply chain. The US-China trade war and Biden administration's technological restrictions have further pressured Apple's traditional manufacturing base in China, while India's Production Linked Incentive Scheme has lured companies like Apple. As Apple's sales in China decline, the company is looking to expand its manufacturing base in India to mitigate risks and tap into the country's skilled workforce and political stability.
