Expanding: Taking the mobile phone manufacturing industry as an example, the manufacturing process of mobile phones requires a lot of labor, and India's labor costs are relatively low compared to other countries, making India the first choice for many mobile phone manufacturers. In recent years, India has successively launched a series of policies and measures to attract foreign investment, such as opening professional skills training institutions and building logistics infrastructure, aiming to attract more foreign-funded enterprises to settle in India. The implementation of these measures has played a positive role in reducing the manufacturing cost and improving the production efficiency of the enterprise.
