Apple wants a few concessions from the Indian government.

Apple is increasingly looking to the Indian market for driving growth in the coming years, including setting up its retail stores and manufacturing the phones locally in the country. Apple products are highly sought-after in India, and it will be a major win for the government if it could get iPhones to be locally manufactured under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ”Make in India” initiative.

To that effect, Tim Cook met with Modi when he visited India earlier this year. While he didn’t commit to making phones locally, Apple has asked the Indian government for certain concessions, including financial incentives to get local production started.

How to capture your New Year’s memories in the most creative ways possible!
