India First Post(@ifpost47):“COPE HARDER!” - IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw 🇮🇳 Bloomberg Opinion columnist Andy Mukherjee tries to undermine India’s iPhone manufacturing success, arguing that imported components and subsidies complicate the story. But here are the numbers he cannot wish away: > ₹19,000 crore - government incentives paid > ₹25,000 crore - direct taxes collected > ₹3 lakh crore - GST collected > 25 lakh jobs in electronics manufacturing, including 12 lakh in mobile manufacturing alone. One in four iPhones is now made in India. India is creating jobs, collecting revenue and building manufacturing capacity. India’s manufacturing rise is real. The narrative can cope harder. 🇮🇳
