Apple has told the Indian government that its local production goals could be at risk, if India adopts the European Union's mandate for universal charging ports on existing iPhones. India aims to enforce the rule, which requires smartphones to have USB-C charging ports, by June 2025, six months after the EU's deadline (December 2024). While Samsung and other manufacturers have agreed to comply, Apple is seeking an exemption or delay, as reported by Reuters.
