The planned step comes against the Trump administration’s background, which imposes tariffs against China, though some products like mobile phones and computers have been exempted. Apple has long focused on its iPhone production in China, it has become vulnerable to any trade war between the two countries and has spread the speculation that the tariff money may increase prices for the company’s largest selling product.
By transferring the US third -party rally into India, the most significant expenditure of the Apple trade war could be avoided, though India itself has faced new tariffs.
The company has already started shipping the iPhones made in India, adding the reserves of its product before the new tariff is activated.
