Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>Tata Group is set to start assembling Apple (AAPL. O) iPhones in India after Wistron Corp (3231. TW) approved the sale of its Indian manufacturing unit to the salt-to-software conglomerate, a minister said on Friday.<\/p>\n

A Tata company will start making iPhones in India for domestic and global markets, Deputy Minister for Information Technology Rajeev Chandrasekhar said on social media platform X.<\/p>\n

The Wistron board approved the sale of Wistron InfoComm Manufacturing India Private Limited to Tata Electronics Private Limited for an estimated $125 million, according to a statement from the Taiwan-based supplier shared by the minister.<\/p>\n

Wistron did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Apple has been touting India as its next big growth driver as it looks to move some production away from China.<\/p>\n

The tech giant began iPhone assembly in the country with Wistron in 2017, before expanding through contracts with firms including Foxconn (2354. TW), and Pegatron Corp (4938. TW).<\/p>\n

In December 2020, the Wistron plant in Karnataka state\u2019s Narasapura was forced to shut for three months after workers destroyed property during protests over non-payment of wages, causing millions of dollars in losses.<\/p>\n
