Xiaomi is exploring local manufacturing partnerships in India as it prepares to expand its Mijia home and lifestyle brand beyond air purifiers, the Economic Times reported on Wednesday, November 11. The proposal is still exploratory, and the company is expected to evaluate potential Indian suppliers for large household appliances.

The categories under consideration include air conditioners, refrigerators and washing machines. Xiaomi launched Mijia in India with air purifiers and had already outlined plans in June to enter the large-appliance market, but it has not disclosed a manufacturing partner, investment amount or production schedule.

Connected Devices Drive The Strategy

The move would extend Xiaomi's existing ecosystem strategy into larger household purchases. Analysts cited by the Economic Times said local production could help the company diversify its revenue base, deepen localisation and improve cost competitiveness in India.

Xiaomi's IoT and lifestyle products segment generated more than 17 billion US dollars in 2025, up 18.3 percent year on year, according to the report. The segment contributes 25 to 28 percent of Xiaomi's total corporate revenue, while Mijia's contribution is included within that division.

Local sourcing could also reduce the logistical burden associated with bulky appliances and help Xiaomi adapt products to Indian demand. The Economic Times said the company already works with manufacturing partners in smartphones and consumer electronics, although no new appliance arrangement has been announced.

Stock Context And Next Steps

Xiaomi stock traded at 3.42 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 09:40 CET on Thursday, November 12. The quote provides a current trading indication, while the next confirmed step in the appliance plan is the evaluation of potential suppliers rather than a signed agreement.
