Smartphone production in Bangladesh falls 50% in May

The smartphone production in the country dropped around 50 per cent month-on-month in May due to rising dollar prices and soaring inflation that led people to tighten their belts.

@Bilal9 Assembling 3rd grade ckd and skd kits and labelling it as made in bangladesh is not called manufacturing
The writer should know this

You have no idea. Pass this on to your Sanghi friends. Some Bangladeshi factories use CAD/CAM and robotics to assemble these products - unlike India. And also unlike India, they have backward linkage built in within their processes.

India has no plans to restrict Chinese mobile phone makers​

Chinese firms have 75-80% share in sub $ 150 segment that contributes to 31% of overall smartphone market. Most Chinese companies manufacture in India, and supplies to the market are met largely by local production

• There were reports on a likely ban on Chinese cos selling phones less than ₹12,000
• Chinese firms cornered 63% of the Indian smartphone market, with players like Xiaomi, Realme, Oppo & Vivo taking 4 of the top 5 spots

The Indian government has no plan to restrict Chinese companies from the entry-level smartphone market, top government officials said.

“There is no such proposal under consideration at the ministry of electronics and information technology," said a person aware of the developments within the government, in response to reports suggesting that the government intended to restrict Chinese players from selling phones less than ₹12,000, comprising the entry-level and affordable mobile phone segments in smartphones and feature phones.

Chinese companies have captured 63% of the Indian smartphone market, with entities such as Xiaomi, Realme, Oppo and Vivo taking up four of the top five spots, according to data from Counterpoint Research as of the quarter ended June.

Chinese firms have 75-80% share in sub $ 150 segment that contributes to 31% of overall smartphone market. Most Chinese companies manufacture in India, and supplies to the market are met largely by local production.

According to industry insiders, the government has been made aware of the declining share of local players, such as Lava, Micromax, Karbonn and Intex, in the Indian market, with the industry seeking policy measures and support to create ‘Indian Champions.’

However, many of these companies neither have the manufacturing scale nor the marketing might to compete with their Chinese counterparts.

“Implementation of such a ban will have its own challenges related to its execution with India being an open channel market, and the remaining players may not find it easy to fill the gap with the products in their portfolio," said Navkendar Singh, associate vice-president for devices research at IDC India, South Asia & ANZ.

“An outright ban is unlikely but overall restricting certain players on the basis of segment might lead to an unstable ecosystem. Sub- ₹12,000 is roughly a $5 bn category and only two or three local players currently can’t take it over night," said Tarun Pathak, research director at Counterpoint Research. He added that Indian brands needed a strong portfolio, distribution and after sales services mix, which was currently missing.

See how they are backpedaling now?

This was almost predictable, when I first heard the news.

This kind of propaganda (the original news of the ban) is floated by Modi's IT cell, to give Sanghis some talking and chest-beating points to win votes.

Amazing Quality of Indian Bike engines. Better than All the world put together.

India came out the BEST.

Chinese came out the WORST.

India just finished stealing the bike engine technology from Japanese companies a few decades ago. Hero, TVS, all Indian companies had JVs with Japanese companies.

Chinese have gone far beyond making third rate 80cc bikes, they are manufacturing electric vehicles and batteries from scratch. They are NOT in your league, they are at least two decades ahead. In ANY industry, not just automotive.

Motorcycles are now banned in some Chinese 1st tier cities. Making low class motorcycles is India's auqaat - not China's.

Better than all the world.

Oh really? Lets see

A typical BASIC LCD (not OLED) has following:

Structure of TFT LCD - Google Search

Bangladesh has TFT fabs? I HIGHLY doubt.

Can bangladesh even make white LEDs (say GaN based white LEDs) for backlighting modern LCDs? I HIGHLY doubt it.

Can bangladesh manufacture glass substrate for TFT? I am not very sure but seems unlikely. These are speciality glass. Croning and AGC come to mind.

Coming to TFTs, Lets start with basics first. Does and can Bangladesh produce polycrystalline silicon for LTPS TFTs (commonly used in phone panels)? Highly doubt it!

I think you have been enamoured by videos like this :

This video shows LCD packaging into a TV and NOT fabricating TFT LCD itself.

For instance I searched "Walton TFT Fabrication" and got nothing in result

Basically Walton imports LEDs, defusers for backlight, panels and it packages modules for TV.

I mean you are telling me that Walton can make LCD panel without fabricating TFTs. Well, it cannot. And NO, bangladesh does not fabricate TFTs

Leave "LCD panels from scratch", first start producing poly-silicon ingots for LTPS deposition.

They also fabricate 1nm chipsets in their sweatshops
