Making iPhone camera modules in India: Apple in talks with Titan, Murugappa

Apple is in talks with the Murugappa Group and Tata Group’s Titan Company to assemble and produce sub-components for iPhone camera modules, according to a report in The Economic Times (ET).

Currently, Apple does not have Indian suppliers for the camera module integrated into its iPhones, despite the assembly of several models in India, a person familiar with the matter told ET. “Partnering either with Titan or the Murugappa Group could address this issue,” said the source cited above.

A source told ET, “In a timeframe of five to six months, they (Apple) will have finalised which is the (partner) to bet on.”
