Kepner-Tregoe Problem Analysis says something changed in the production
line in India.

Common sense will tell you the same thing at considerably lower cost.
Either a bad batch of components (high on the list) or a change in
manufacturing process ( much lower but possible).

Either with the parts or with the personnel or with the procedure. It
is usually a person.
We had a problem here at work with a valve traceable to a supplier who
had an untrained summer student for about a month who did not get
trained on a small critical detail.

This is typical KT Problem Analysis, look for what changed on the the
Time Line for this radio production

That is old wine in new bottles. It was seen previously as TQM, QA and
all the other acronyms consultants made millions from.
