Phones and electronic goods made in India are in great demand abroad. Even Chinese smartphone and electronic companies have started exporting from India. They are sending goods to West Asia Africa and even America. Earlier goods used to come to these markets only from China and Vietnam. But now this is happening due to the constant insistence of the Government of India and increasing production capacity here. According to the Economic Times Oppo Mobile India has earned foreign exchange of Rs 272 crore from exports for the first time in the financial year 2024 (FY24) . At the same time Realme Mobile Telecommunications (India) has earned Rs 114 crore. The companies have given this information to the Registrar of Companies (RoC) on 12 May. The results of FY25 are not out yet. Hisense Group one of the largest Chinese companies selling televisions and home appliances plans to export goods made in India to West Asia and Africa from early next year. Big change for Chinese companies This is a big change for Chinese companies. Till now they were selling goods only in India. But after the border dispute with China in the year 2020 the government has increased the strictness on Chinese companies. The government wants Chinese companies to produce in India only. The government has asked Chinese companies to produce in collaboration with Indian companies. They should do distribution and export work in India itself. Also they should appoint Indians to top positions in their companies. Lenovo Group is also preparing to export servers and laptops from India. Its smartphone company Motorola already exports devices to the US. Motorolas phones are manufactured by Dixon Technologies. Dixon is now expanding its capacity by 50% to meet the growing export demand. Dixon also makes smartphones for Chinese company Transsion Holdings. Transsion makes brands such as Intel Techno and Infinix. It has started exporting to Africa. These companies are also partnering Home appliance major Haier is also looking for export opportunities. Smartphone brands like Oppo Vivo Realme OnePlus and Xiaomi are now partnering with Indian companies. Some of these have also started exports. However FY24 RoC filings of Xiaomi Midea and OnePlus do not show foreign exchange earnings from exports. Some export schemes are being helped by the PLI scheme of the Government of India. The PLI scheme means that the government gives incentives to companies for increasing production. Most Chinese brands are not part of the PLI but some of their contract manufacturers like Dixon are taking advantage of this scheme. The owner of a large third-party manufacturing company said the government has been asking Chinese companies to export from India for a long time. He said on the condition of anonymity that even the rest of the Chinese brands that have not started yet will start soon.
