NEW DELHI - Apple Inc said on Monday it will manufacture its latest iPhone 14 in India, as the tech giant moves some of its production.

Analysts at J.P.Morgan expect Apple to move about 5 percent of iPhone 14 production from late 2022 to India, which is the world’s second-biggest smartphone market

The company launched the flagship iPhone 14 at an event earlier this month, where it focused on safety upgrades rather than flashy new technical specifications, with the exception of a new adventure-focused watch.
