Apple Hits Record $9 Billion in India Sales as Retail and Production Scale Up

Overview

  • Apple opened new stores in Bengaluru and Pune this week, with additional outlets planned in Noida and Mumbai.
  • About one in five iPhones is now made in India across five factories, and Apple plans to use the country as a hub for U.S.-bound devices.

  • Apple has not commented on the Bloomberg-reported revenue figure.
