These Apple Stores across the country give customers a chance to experience Apple products at their best, including iPhones, AirPods, Apple Watch models, Macs, and other accessories. Notably, the first Apple Store opened in Mumbai in April 2023, marking Apple’s commitment to the country. In recent years, the company has scaled up iPhone production at local facilities, a move widely seen as part of its strategy to strengthen its India operations while reducing reliance on China.
Apple is manufacturing all four models of its upcoming iPhone 17 series in India before the September launch reportedly. This is the first time that every version, including the high-end Pro models, will be built in India from the beginning. The move is part of Apple’s plan to depend less on China for US shipments and avoid tariff risks. The company has already moved a large part of its iPhone production for the US market from China to India.
