Apple Discussing with Government on Manufacturing in India

Apple Discussing with Government on Manufacturing in India

Apple Inc., has written a letter to the federal government in India outlining its plans to seek financial incentives in an effort to gain market share in the country where 97% of all smartphones run Android, reports Buzzfeed.

Earlier in June, the government allowed single-brand retailers like Apple to open stores in the country with the caveat that they procure at least 30% of their raw materials from India after the first three years.

Prime minister, Narendra Modi, has been trying to ramp up manufacturing in the country through the “Make In India” initiative, and smartphone makers such as Samsung, Xiaomi, and OnePlus already assemble their phones in India to keep prices down.

With 50 million of the country’s 1.2 billion people owning a smartphone, India’s market is not saturated, yet, and is an attractive market for Apple to see significant growth.
