At present, majority of the mobile accessories are imported in India from China, which are easily available in the grey markets & local stores, and consumers find these accessories affordable & attractive. But the quickly changing consumer tastes and preferences entitle domestic mobile-phone makers to have innovative ecosystem in place to source mobile components locally, thus reducing the dependency on imports. Realizing the need to address local supply-side challenges, Amit Gupta (Director) established Mucho International that crafts high-quality mobile cases & accessories based on client’s requirement and facilitates them with localization of various components within India. Because of the amazing customer confidence gained over the years, the company has been able to successfully expand its range of products, designs and features for many of the makes and models of mobile phones currently available in the market.

Recalling inception scenario, Amit says, “I left Lite-On Mobile in 2013 and decided to start my own business. However, working in China gave me clear picture of huge requirement of mobile cases

& accessories and I started making development of mobile cases & covers and manufacture locally. Gradually, I realized that manufacturers are facing issues importing cases from China due to higher lead time and obsolescence of designs and models". This lead the foundation of Mucho International that specializes in customizing and manufacturing mobile accessories for the OEMs and PANs, which at present nobody is offering. We started with TATA Croma, Reliance Digital, Case-Mate among others. Mucho soon established itself as 'exclusive partner' for Jio cases.
