You’re absolutely correct! In Java, when you create a string using a string literal, the JVM checks the String
Constant Pool. If an identical string exists in the pool, it returns a reference to that existing string instead of
creating a new object. This behaviour is part of string interning, which helps conserve memory by reusing identical
string instances.
Immutable String in Java

In Java, string objects are immutable, which means they cannot be modified or changed after creation. Instead,
any operations that appear to modify a string actually create a new string object with the desired changes.
class Demo {
public static void main(String[] args)

{
String name = “Sachin”;
name.concat(“ Tendulkar”);
System.out.println(name);

}
}
Output :-

Sachin

class Demo {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
String name = “Sachin”;

name = name.concat(“ Tendulkar”);
System.out.println(name);
}
}

Output :-

Sachin Tendulkar
