NEW DELHI: India’s additional scrutiny of imports from China has disrupted operations at plants owned by Apple supplier Foxconn in southern India, three sources told Reuters, and other foreign firms are also facing delays as tensions between the two countries build.

More than 150 Foxconn shipments — containing smartphone and electronic parts — were stuck at the port of Chennai, though some are being cleared slowly now, the first source said. The total number of parts in the shipments was not clear. “We cannot keep checking 100% of shipments forever … Shipments of non-Chinese companies being impacted will be cleared on priority,” said one official.
