Apple to start iPhone Pro assembly in India – Times of India


NEW DELHI: Apple is finally set to make Pro series of iPhones in India, in an affirmation to the country’s Make in India initiative. However, there are “no immediate plans” to assemble iPad tablets and MacBook laptops in India for now, sources told TOI.
The iPhone Pro devices will be assembled for the first time in India when the latest iPhone 16 models hit stores globally around September this year, though trial production will begin a little earlier, the sources added.Apple has already been assembling non-Pro models in India, the latest being iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus variants.

Once iPhone Pro’s assembly stabilises in India, the models would also be exported to various global markets, similar to what Apple does with the non-Pro series. “The plan has been in the works for the past one year, with efforts to streamline the supply chain for new devices. The results have been positive and the company will assemble the Pro models, something it had been able to do so far,” one source said.
Apple did not respond to questions on the matter.
