Tata will construct largest iPhone manufacturing facility in India in Hosur, Tamil Nadu. When Tata builds one of India’s biggest Apple iPhone production facilities in Tamil Nadu, more than 50,000 people would be employed.
In an attempt to boost the manufacturing and production of Apple products in South Asia, Tata intends to build the largest iPhone assembly plant in India in Tamil Nadu. As to news sources, the plant is set to be constructed at Hosur.
Within two years, the iPhone plant is anticipated to have more than 20 production lines and employ more than 50,000 people, according to sources. In twelve to eighteen months, the website ought to be operational.
The plant would help Apple achieve its goal of localizing the supply chain and strengthening its ties with Tata, which it presently owns an iPhone manufacturing facility in Karnataka that it acquired from Wistron. When the new Tamil Nadu facility starts producing iPhones, it might surpass the Karnataka facility’s output by a wide margin.
With the iPhone assembly plant in Tamil Nadu expected to start operations by the end of 2024, more phones being made locally could lead to reduced prices for Apple devices, escalating the rivalry between Samsung and Apple.
Tata Electronics already has a large manufacturing operation in Hosur, employing over 5,000 people. The facility is in charge of making the exterior cases for the iPhones.
In preparation for a potential rise in iPhone production in India, Tata Electronics has started hiring for its Tamil Nadu plant.
In October, Tata acquired the Apple factory in Karnataka from Wistron with the intention of expanding the manufacture of iPhones in India and the South Asian area. The assembly plant, which Tata purchased for an astounding USD 123 million, is situated near Bengaluru.
With almost 10,000 workers, the production plant aims to supply iPhones valued at USD 1.4 billion, with incentives offered to the staff if this objective is met. Even when other businesses are pulling out of the market due to Apple’s low profit margins, Tata Electronics has always maintained a strong investing interest in the iPhone’s manufacturing process.
