Fire at Tata Group’s Hosur Plant Halts iPhone Production, Threatens Apple’s Festive Season Sales

Apples capacity to satisfy demand ahead of Indias holiday season has been impacted by an extended production standstill caused by a fire at Tata Group

Apples capacity to satisfy demand ahead of Indias holiday season has been impacted by an extended production standstill caused by a fire at Tata Groups iPhone component facility in Hosur, Tamil Nadu. The plant—which provides back panels and other parts for iPhone models—is essential for domestic assembly and exports. According to analysts, this may potentially disrupt up to 15% of Apples projected 1.5 million iPhone 14 and 15 sales in India. Even though Apple could have accumulated parts, a protracted ban might compel the business to purchase parts from China. This event may put Tatas ambitions for more iPhone production growth on hold and show the difficulties facing Indias electronics manufacturing industry despite efforts to draw in international investment.
