iPhone production in India has been suspended because the country has been put in lockdown due to coronavirus. As reported by Bloomberg, Foxconn is suspending production until 14th April, while Wistron is also following the Indian government's orders.
The 21-day lockdown was announced as a surprise by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday, 24th March. Lockdowns are not uncommon around the world nowadays and are being implemented as means to force social distancing. However, the 3-week lockdown in India impacts 1.3 billion people, and is the largest lockdown in the world, enforced as an effort to stop the spread of coronavirus. While the lockdown is beneficial to stop the spread of the virus, it has some side effects for business and the country's economy.
