Contractors Wistron and Foxconn have additionally been hit by labour unrest in recent times.

“These are temporary setbacks,” mentioned Prabhu Ram, vice chairman at Cybermedia Research. “Continued efforts to improve safety and operational standards are crucial for strengthening India’s position as an emerging global electronics manufacturing hub.”

Tata is amongst Apple’s latest suppliers in India, which analysts estimate will contribute 20-25% of whole international iPhone shipments this 12 months, up from 12-14 % final 12 months.

The fire-hit plant employed 20,000 employees. Another unit in the identical Tata complicated was resulting from begin making full iPhones later this 12 months and it’s unclear if the incident will trigger this to be delayed.
