    India Hits Back at China with 'Apple Attack' — iPhone Shipments from Beijing Plummet

    China is getting trapped in its own trap. This time India has given it an 'Apple attack'. Statistics are showing that there has been a huge drop in Apple's iPhone shipments in China. To explain in simple language, the shipment of Apple phones that were made in large numbers earlier in the neighbouring country, i.e. the supply to other countries has decreased rapidly.


    China has always wanted to stab India in the back. The dragon wants to make every plan of its successful, which harms India. But in the last 10 years, the tables have turned in such a way that China is getting trapped in its own trap. This time India has given it an 'Apple attack'. Statistics are showing that there has been a huge drop in Apple's iPhone shipments in China. To explain in simple terms, the shipment of Apple phones that were manufactured in the neighbouring country earlier, i.e. their supply to other countries, has decreased rapidly. During this time, the production of Apple phones in India has increased. The figures also show that Apple is the only smartphone manufacturer in China whose shipment has decreased there. It is evident that India has used Apple as a weapon to cut the pocket of its neighbour.


    First understand the game of figures


    IDC data shows that in the third quarter of this year, Apple's shipment in China has decreased by 9 percent. During this time, China's smartphone market has grown, but it has suffered a major setback due to the decrease in iPhone shipments, because most iPhones are manufactured and supplied outside. The figures show that during the time when Apple's shipment has decreased in China, Xiaomi has achieved a growth of 40 percent. It is being said that Apple did not take advantage of the subsidy of the Chinese government.


    98 lakh fewer iPhones made in China


    Apple's share in the Chinese smartphone shipment market was more than 17 percent, which has now come down to 13 percent. In the last quarter, 98 lakh fewer iPhones were made there. It is not clear in the report why Apple did not take advantage of the Chinese government's subsidy. But it seems that the iPhone maker has made up its mind to get out of China. The kind of tension between America and China has inspired many American companies including Apple to increase their production outside China in India and other countries of the world.


    India is leaving no stone unturned to leave China behind


    India is leaving no stone unturned to leave China behind in smartphone manufacturing. Apple's matter is no longer hidden from anyone. The world has come to know that Apple's phones are being made in India in full swing. Foxconn, the leading company making iPhones, has started work on setting up a new plant in Uttar Pradesh. Other Apple manufacturers are also increasing their production in India, which is hurting China badly. This is the reason why Apple's position in China has gone down to number five. Apple's shipments to China have declined for the seventh consecutive quarter.
