NEW DELHI: Apple is to start making iPhones in India this year, a local government official said Feb 3, as the company seeks to tap into a booming middle class while sales in China slow.
Karnataka’s IT minister said Apple had agreed to assemble its hugely popular phones in the southern state, whose capital Bangalore is India’s technology hub.
