Xiaomi ramps up ‘Make in India’ initiative with new Smartphone and Smart TV factories
Mi India completed 5 years of the ‘Make in India’ initiative. Mi India was earlier manufacturing all of its smartphones in India via its manufacturing partners: Foxconn and Flex. However, the company has been ramping up its Indian smartphone manufacturing during the pandemic over the last 9 months.
In a recent move, Mi India has onboarded two new manufacturing partners – DBG and BYD – for manufacturing smartphones in India.
DBG, which is already operational in Haryana, enables an increase in monthly manufacturing capacity by about 20%. The second facility with BYD which will go live in Tamil Nadu in the first half of 2021 is also expected to contribute significantly to the production capacity.
