Krishna ji, any sakhat advantage accruing to us technologically besides jobs and (hopefully) cheaper iPhones?

May be skill development, ancillaries and possibility of of components manufacturing.

I certainly hope Indians get these jobs. Announcements are one thing. Reality is another.

Some time back, apple had announced that they would go to India. Today, they exported 1.5 lakh crore mobile in a year.

No technical part (even circuit board) is made in India, these iPhones are all assembled from Chinese parts and assemblies, in other words screwed together which is the ONLY low tech (I'd say unskilled tech) value addition by Indians. Except maybe the local made Tata enclosures which are simple plastic cases.

You don't see a problem with this? The dependency on China, that is?

If you know how any product indigenised, you would not have said this. Few decades back, Indian automobile companies started importing bike and car parts to manufacture final product. In next stage, we started making small part, that followed by making of engines, that followed by those companies starting R&D centres in India followed by design studios. Today, company like Maruti Suzuki has become bigger than parent Suzuki in Japan. Same is the case with Honda India in 2 wheeler manufacturing. The old partner of Honda, Named Hero is today the largest manufacturer of two wheelers in the world. Same way, Bajaj, TVS and escort is doing exceedingly well. TVS and Bajaj together pushed Chinese company out of Africa. Same is replicated in Russia. Quality of our automobiles has surpassed that of even Japanese and German companies at Chinese price. This is how indigenisation happens.

We had two mobile manufacturing companies in India a decade back. Today, it is over 200 plants. We have a huge value addition here in India. We are starting 3 nm chip manufacturing from this year. Things are happening in a manner in which it happens globally in a particular pattern. We are secon in mobile phone manufacturing today in a small span of a decade. In next decade, we shall atleast tripple our economy. We shall be adding one BD economy every 6 months by the end of this decade.

What you described is a standard pattern in which a product gets Indigenised. India is following that pattern.
