In one more catastrophe for Chinese organizations, the Indian government is purportedly considering limiting Chinese cell phone producers from selling phones under Rs 12,000, or $150. The thought is potentially to push local organisations like Lava and Micromax, among others. Chinese cell phone producers at present overwhelm the spending plan cell phone portion or the under Rs 15,000 cost section with some offers gathered by Samsung and a couple of other non-Chinese organizations.
According to the report coming from Bloomberg, the Indian government wants to push Indian cell phone producers. Assuming the move happens, it is going to affect deals for brands like Xiaomi, Poco, and Realme, among others—organizations that have been overwhelming the reasonable cell phone section for quite a while now. According to a Counterpoint report, cell phones under Rs 12,000 added up to 33% of India’s deal volume for the quarter through June 2024, with Chinese organisations representing up to 80 percent of those shipments.
The battle between India and China has been going on for a long time now. A portion of the Chinese cell phone organisations have been under a microscope as of late. In the most recent couple of months, a few Chinese firms, including Xiaomi, Vivo, and Oppo, were charged by the ED over supposed tax avoidance. Truth be told, as of late, the Enforcement Directorate froze Vivo’s financial balances in a tax evasion case. The organization later encouraged the specialists to thaw the financial balances so the organization could proceed with business in the country.
It ought to be noted that the Indian government is yet to report official subtleties on whether they want to restrict Chinese telephone creators from selling telephones under Rs 12,000, and if indeed, how would they intend to start the move?
Other than the cell phone organizations, the Indian government has its eyes on Chinese applications also. The public authorities have as of late arranged for Google and Apple to pull down the Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) application, or the Indian form of PUBG Mobile, from the Play store as well as the Apple App store. The BGMI portable game is, at this point, not accessible for download in India. Neither the public authorities nor the game engineer have uncovered the explanation for obstructing the portable game in the country. This comes after the Indian government prohibited many Chinese applications in 2020, including TikTok and PUBG Mobile, and that’s just the beginning.
