India is planning to backstop its growing electronics sector by arranging to airlift components from China, three government officials said, as India tries to contain the fallout from the coronavirus crisis in China.
India’s federal technology ministry has asked electronics and smartphone industry lobby groups to draw up a list of components made in China, which then can be airlifted, two of the officials said. China is slowly getting back to work after an extended shutdown, but it is still grappling with a range of production and logistics delays.
Electronics manufacturing, especially the assembly of smartphones, is a bright spot for India’s otherwise flagging economy. But the country is still highly dependent on China for components such as camera modules and display screens.
