India still dependent on Chinese components for assembly of electronic products: Analyst

As per a S&P Global report, India will need to double shipments, either through new capacity or by redirecting shipments for the domestic market.
iPhones made in India are predominantly exported to the US. Total exports to the US was 82% of phones manufactured in India in the three-month period to February 28, 2025, S&P Global Market Intelligence data shows. That surged to 97.6% in March 2025 as a result of a 219% jump in exports, reflecting the firm looking to preempt higher tariffs.
