Barely days after reports surfaced of Apple’s assembly partner Foxconn<\/a> planning a major investment in India to set up manufacturing units, another of the iPhone maker’s partners is now ready to follow suit. Taiwanese electronics major Pegatron is preparing to set up its first plant in India. <\/p>\n

Though little is known about the investment size or the manufacturing capacity, reports said the facility to manufacture iPhones would be built in southern India. A report<\/u><\/a> in The Economic Times said Pegatron had already registered a subsidiary in Chennai and officials were holding discussions with multiple state governments for land allocation. <\/p>\n
