According to the trade intelligence platform, the presence of India-made iPhones in the US market has been steadily gaining momentum, marking a significant stride in Apple's strategic shift of its global manufacturing base to India.

"Out of this substantial figure, Apple iPhones constituted a significant portion, accounting for USD 5.46 billion. This represents a substantial increase from the USD 2.1 billion recorded in the fiscal year 2022-23, indicating the growing preference for Indian-made iPhones among American consumers," Trade Vision stated.
