Apple’s ‘big plans’ for India: Resume iPads production, Pune for AirPod cases

Apple may soon start manufacturing its iPads in India again reportedly owing to government’s push to bring more supply chains into the country. The tech giant will begin looking for a manufacturing partner after talks with China’s BYD on making iPads in India owing to restrictions amid geopolitical concerns.

Citing a senior government official in the know, Moneycontrol reported, “BYD was almost ready to set up the factory for iPad in India but clearance was a problem and the situation has changed significantly now. We are now trying to help (Apple) expand further to grow for the next two to three years. There will be substantial growth.”
