Following the success of its flagship stores in Mumbai and Delhi, Apple is planning to open four more retail outlets in India as part of its ongoing expansion in the country. The tech giant has announced that it will soon open new stores in key cities, including Bengaluru, Pune, Delhi-NCR, and a second location in Mumbai.Apple’s expansion in India reflects the company’s broader strategy to strengthen its retail presence in one of the world’s fastest-growing smartphone markets. The current stores in Mumbai and Delhi have seen a positive response from consumers, encouraging Apple to explore further growth opportunities in metropolitan areas.Alongside its retail expansion, Apple is also looking at increasing its manufacturing capabilities in India. The company has ambitious plans to start producing the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max models locally. This is seen as a significant move in Apple’s broader goal of diversifying its supply chain beyond China and tapping into India’s growing manufacturing potential.Over the next few years, Apple aims to have 25% of its iPhone production based in India. The decision aligns with the Indian government’s “Make in India” initiative, which encourages foreign companies to manufacture products domestically. Apple’s increased investment in India is expected to create jobs and boost the local economy, while also helping the company navigate global supply chain challenges.
