ICEA mobile phone manufacturers have proposed to reduce import duty on mobile phones from US to zero from 15%.
According to ICEA, the US is not the main manufacturing competitor of India across several electronic products. Instead, it offers an export opportunity to export a mobile phone of $ 80 billion.
Foxconn is also designed to start the manufacture of Apple AirPods this month for export at Foxconn in Hyderabad.
AirPods will be the second category of product that Apple will begin to produce in India after iPhone.
