[00:00:00]Did you know, India once had the world's largest mobile phone factory, right here in Chennai?

[00:00:07]Nokia built it in 2005.

[00:00:10]8,000 workers, 15 million phones every month.

[00:00:15]The biggest phone factory on Earth.

[00:00:18]And we destroyed it ourselves.

[00:00:21]Here is how.

[00:00:22]Nokia was making phones worth 30,000 crore rupees a year, exporting 400 million phones, creating jobs for 25,000 Indian families.

[00:00:34]Then India's tax department arrived with a notice. 21,000 crore rupees. They froze every single Nokia asset. Nokia couldn't move. Nokia couldn't sell. Nokia couldn't do anything.

[00:00:49]Meanwhile, Vietnam called Nokia.

[00:00:52]No tax disputes, free land, full government support. Come to Vietnam.

[00:00:58]Nokia looked at India. Nokia looked at Vietnam.

[00:01:02]Nokia went to Vietnam.

[00:01:04]The world's biggest phone factory shut down on November 1st, 2014.

[00:01:10]India's phone exports crashed 70% in 1 year.

[00:01:14]8,000 workers lost their jobs.

[00:01:17]60% of them were women, ages 20 to 27.

[00:01:22]No factory, no income, no future.

[00:01:26]Vietnam today makes 10 million phones every month.

[00:01:30]Jobs India threw away.

[00:01:33]We had the world's biggest phone factory, and we taxed it into leaving.

[00:01:39]Drop your thoughts below. Was this India's biggest mistake?
