What’s that, you say? There isn’t an iPhone Manufacturing Unit in India yet? Well, that could soon change according to IT minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, who said on Saturday (13/02/2016) that the country has been asked to set up such a unit near Hosur in Tamil Nadu and it will employ 60,000 workers when fully operational. No new iPhone manufacturing plant has been set up in India so far but the one near Bangalore has been exporting refurbished devices to other countries including Hong Kong.

Apple Preparing to Source Chips From US Plant, Expand Supply From Europe
Apple is preparing to source chips from the U.S. for the first time and expand its supply of parts made in Europe as it seeks to reduce reliance on China amid a worsening trade war between Washington and Beijing.
The world's most valuable company will assemble semiconductors at a plant near San Francisco where they'll be made with equipment designed by Intel Corp., according to people familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified because the plans are private. Apple also will get some chips directly from the factory without assembling them, a strategy that allows it to skirt tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump on goods imported into the United States from China.
Foxconn Said to Plan to Quadruple Workforce at Tamil Nadu iPhone Plant
Apple's manufacturing partner Foxconn is reportedly planning to quadruple the size of its workforce at a new iPhone manufacturing facility in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu. The company currently employs about 1,50,000 people in India and plans to employ 60,000 workers by 2020. A senior government official said that air tags would be deployed on trucks to track them while they move goods around the country and detect any movement or loading beyond set parameters.
Other benefits
Apple manufactures their products in several different countries. As a result of this, they offer tax incentives and low-cost labor. This also means that products are manufactured in countries with very different environmental standards. Air tags have the potential to change all of this by bringing manufacturing back to the United States while at the same time making the process more environmentally friendly. Apple tags would not only track an individual's product but also provide a way for individuals who own Apple products to locate them should they become lost or stolen. The battery life on Apple tags will last up to two years and is estimated to cost $50 per tag. The price of air tags will depend on how many air tag holders there are on any given day. Currently, there is no set price point because there are too few users on any given day which causes it to fluctuate wildly from one day to the next.
