According to TrendForce, after acquiring Wistron’s factory in India, Tata Group is expected to assemble only two models of iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus, accounting for only 5%.
TrendForce believes in the report that Apple is testing the Tata Group’s operational control capabilities by using a small number of iPhone 15 orders to test its yield rate.
If the Tata Group can prove its capabilities, it can harness Wistron’s existing factories and potentially deliver more iPhone orders.
Wistron’s current factory in Bangalore is mainly responsible for assembling iPhone 14 orders. In order to obtain production subsidies from the Indian government, Wistron has committed to producing iPhones worth at least US$1.8 billion by March 2024. After the transaction is completed, the Tata Group will take over and fulfill this commitment.
It was previously reported that Wistron’s board of directors approved the sale of Wistron Information and Communications Manufacturing India Private Limited to Tata Electronics Private Limited for approximately US$125 million. Wistron did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
