Indonesia said a $100 million investment proposal from Apple to build an accessory and component plant was not enough for the country to allow the tech giant to sell its latest iPhone model, its industry ministry said on Monday. Indonesia in November banned sales of Apple's iPhone 16 after it failed to meet requirements that smartphones sold domestically should comprise at least 40% locally-made parts. Indonesia has also banned the sale of Alphabet's Google Pixel phones over a similar lack of use of local components.

The revised forecast represents an upside of 10.56% from the index's close of 5,969.34 on Friday and 10% from Barclays' estimate of 6,000 for 2024.
