Similarly, if you are eying the new Apple Watch Series 2, it starts at Rs 32,900 ($495) and will go on sale with the new iPhones. India remains one of the most expensive places worldwide to purchase an iPhone. The Indian government imposes high import duties on smartphones in a bid to increase local manufacturing. Apple is said to be planning its India manufacturing facility with Foxconn but that could take a few years to materialize. Apple has also started to put more focus on India, with Tim Cook paying his maiden visit to the country as Apple CEO earlier this year. He wooed the government with plans to set up a software development center as well as open an accelerator for app developers.Cook also expressed desires to setup company's iconic stores in the country, and hoped to convince the government to allow his company to sell refurbished iPhones, one of the ways Apple could offer Indians iPhone for lower price. The Indian government rejected the company's proposal to sell refurbished iPhones, but relaxed the local sourcing rules to give Apple a nod to open its stores in the country.
