iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus to be manufactured in India by Tata Group: Report

Highlights

• The upcoming iPhone 15 series of smartphones will reportedly be assembled in India.
• Tata Group is said to make the iPhone 15 and the iPhone 15 Plus models in the country.
• The iPhone 15 Pro series will still be made by Foxconn, Pegatron, and Luxshare.

There is still plenty of time left for the iPhone 15 series to launch, but ahead of the official release, several leaks and rumours have started popping up on the internet. While the specifications, features, and design of the iPhone 15 series models have constantly been leaking out, a new report has come up, which suggests a pretty interesting and welcome move on Apple’s part. If the report is to be believed, the iPhone 15 series smartphones (iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus) will be assembled in India, as Tata Group has allegedly acquired the rights for the distribution of the iPhone 15 series assembly orders in the country.

iPhone 15 series to be made in India?

According to a new report by TrendForce, Tata Group will assemble a small chunk of the iPhone 15 series smartphones in India. The conglomerate has recently acquired Wistron, so it now has got the company’s India iPhone production line. Tata Group, therefore, will reportedly become the new contract partner for iPhone manufacturing in India, and the fourth manufacturer for Apple after Foxconn, Pegatron, and Luxshare.

The report suggests that Tata Group will assemble 5 percent of Apple’s iPhone 15 series phones, while the major share will still remain with Foxconn, Luxshare, and Pegatron. Foxconn will still have 70 percent of assembly orders for the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max, while it will have 60 percent of orders for the iPhone 15 Plus.

As for Luxshare, it will have 25 percent of iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro Max orders. Speaking of Pegatron, it will have 35 percent of iPhone 15 Plus orders and 30 percent of iPhone 15 Pro orders. Lastly, Tata Groups will not have any share in the iPhone 15 Pro lineup (iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max). That said, this could very well be a pilot move from Apple, and Tata Group might start manufacturing a higher percentage of iPhones going forward.
