iPhone manufacturer Wistron will build new Indian factory

The Apple manufacturer Wistron Corp. has been approved for the construction of a new assembly plant on 43 hectares of land about 40 miles from Bengaluru. This could lead to more iPhone production in the country.


The new facility, which is expected to cost around Rs. 6,800 million (US $ 105 million), will create more than 6,000 new jobs in the region.

Wistron Corp began assembling the iPhone in India last year, and Apple has asked the vendor to focus on building the iPhone SE. Now that Apple's production in India continues to grow, Wistron Corp. could commissioned to make other devices, including iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s.

In February 2018, Apple Post reported that Foxconn, Apple's main production partner, had confirmed its intention to open production facilities in India, and Foxconn officials told Maharashtra ministers that they would invest $ 5 billion. at the opening of new facilities in the country.
