The Cupertino giant recently confirmed that they will commence manufacturing in Bengaluru as soon as April. It is safe to assume that the speculated iPhone 8 smartphone may be manufactured in India. However, if rumours are to be believed, Apple will restrict itself to specific gadgets at first and will gradually increase the production. Apple pays around 12 per cent of manufacturing and production costs on Apple devices as import taxes and duties in India at the moment. These costs add to the final price of Apple devices that make the final price of the gadgets quite expensive as compared to other markets. Additionally, if Apple devices gets cheaper – it may also mean better service and repairs through local official stores in India.
