    While this makes it harder on a few American companies, this sounds like a good thing for India? Not just for their local companies and economy, but also so that people get trusted components

    Unless I misunderstood

      no, most of the companies here just assemble or put a made in india sticker on stuff and sell it here. no customer service, no warranty service even with items having warranty. they just blame the customer for everything and try to charge us a lot of money to do anything. i wouldn’t trust anything made in india. infact if it’s made in india - it’s rubbish. just e waste being sold to us.
      example - there’s about a dozen companies selling ssd’s and hard drives for around 25% cheaper than the established brands with 3-5 year warranty but those devices don’t last long. ssd’s fail in months or before a year. same with mechanical hdd’s. same with usb pen drives or sdcards. let’s say they are similar to overpriced alibaba trash components.
