While there were conflicting reports of premium Apple iPhone models being locally manufactured in India, the latest info sums up that the plan is ready to execute in a couple of months. The first premium model that’s expected to go through the production line is the iPhone X, with additional details stating that more premium models will be locally manufactured in the region as well.

According to the latest report from Economic Times, volume production is set to begin from July, with Apple’s long-time partner Foxconn commencing operations from its 160-acre factory in Chennai, according to the sources privy to this information. However, the plan isn’t to just stop at the iPhone X as the report states that production capacity is expected to step up and expand to higher models going forward. This means that we might get to see the iPhone XR, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR manufactured locally. While the following has not been confirmed, it is possible that a small percentage of Apple’s 2019 lineup is produced in India as well.
