He noted that if India can match China’s production timeline, it would mark a new chapter in Apple’s global supply chain strategy.
This growth is strongly backed by the ‘Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme’ for electronics, which offers financial incentives to manufacturers for scaling up local production. The development is also a big boost to the ‘Make in India’ initiative, which aims to position the country as a global manufacturing hub. (IANS)
