Subhabrata Sengupta, partner at Avalon Consulting, highlighted that many global companies will maintain significant ties with China due to its substantial share of global demand and well-established manufacturing ecosystems.

He also notes that Indian companies are in the nascent stages of developing such supply chains, with only partial movement away from China despite some progress in assembling circuit boards locally.
