"Apple is reportedly ramping up the production of its iPhone 17 series in India, signaling a major shift in its manufacturing strategy."
India Becomes a Key Hub for iPhone Manufacturing
Apple has started mass production of the standard iPhone 17 at Foxconn’s Bengaluru facility, with plans to expand at Tata’s Hosur plant and Foxconn’s Chennai unit.
Industry sources suggest Tata could eventually manufacture up to half of all iPhones assembled in India.
Apple exported smartphones worth $7.5 billion from India in Q1 2025.
Why Apple is Shifting Production to India
Apple is reducing reliance on China amid tariff risks. Producing in India ensures competitive pricing for US consumers.
Production Numbers
Apple aims for 60 million units in 2025, up from 40 million in 2024.
Global Launch
Apple will unveil the iPhone 17 series on September 9, 2025 including:
- iPhone 17
- iPhone 17 Pro
- iPhone 17 Air
- iPhone 17 Pro Max
👉 The iPhone Plus variant may be skipped, alongside new Apple Watch models.
