Apple to Increase India's Share of Global iPhone Production to 30-35% by 2031
Apple plans to increase India's share of global iPhone production from about 25% to 30-35% within the next five years, potentially raising the annual value of India's iPhone output to $40-45 billion by 2031. This expansion is supported by India's Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes, with government agencies maintaining close coordination with Apple. Foxconn, Apple's largest contract manufacturer, is also exploring a new manufacturing facility in Gujarat to support this growth.
