    Amazon India said it will start local manufacturing of its devices here, reducing its dependence on China. This would give a leg up to the government’s Make-in-India push. The e-commerce major will work with Foxconn’s subsidiary Cloud Network Technology in Chennai to make its Fire TV Stick (which helps to stream on smart TVs).

    The Chennai facility is expected to be operational later this year. Amazon was largely sourcing its Fire TV Stick from China and Taiwan for the Indian market. Amazon India is looking to make lakhs of devices in India every year and will consider scaling up manufacturing capacity based on domestic demand.
