Apple has started manufacturing iPhone 15 models at Foxconn’s Sriperumbudur plant in Tamil Nadu.

Last year, it took ten days for the Wistron factory to start manufacturing the iPhone 14 models after their global launch. It took another month for these India-assembled iPhones to arrive on the market.

This year, there could be less delay as the company has already started manufacturing the iPhone 15 models in India. Initially, these devices will cater to the Indian audience, and the company will export them to other markets later. Once the festive season ends, Apple will start exporting these units to Europe and the USA in December.
