This feels like a classic “globalization vs. national interests” tension. Apple’s move to manufacture iPhones in India is part of a broader strategy to diversify its supply chain and reduce dependency on a single region, which makes sense given the geopolitical landscape and recent disruptions in global trade.
Also, India is one of the fastest-growing smartphone markets, and local manufacturing often means lower import duties and a better understanding of regional demand. It’s a smart business move, not just a political one.
Curious to see how this plays out, especially given the Make in India push and the fact that China is no longer the default factory floor for the world.
