Tata Electronics is poised to increase its employee count by 175% to 55,000, expanding its iPhone assembly hub in Hosur, Tamil Nadu. The move follows its acquisition of Wistron’s domestic operations last year, making it the first Indian company to manufacture iPhones. Amid talks with Pegatron to acquire its Chennai unit, Tata Electronics seeks to strengthen its foothold in smartphone manufacturing. Despite the company’s silence on the matter, the hiring surge underscores its commitment to scaling up operations in the rapidly growing Indian electronics market.
