Motorola to start assembling mobile phones in India

World’s second largest maker of mobile phones Motorola is now going to manufacture mobile phones in India. They would now be starting to assemble mobile phones in India starting next month itself. The aim is to increase their market share in the ever-growing Indian market, which is adding more than a million mobile customers every month.

Allen Burnes, Vice President for mobile devices at Motorola spoke to reporters: “We shall start shipping made in India handsets in India by December.” With almost around 3 million new customers joining the mobile user market every month, it becomes important for all the top mobile manufacturers to have a presence here.

And considering low cost mobile products are the most demanded ones, localizing the manufacturing process helps these companies offer competitive prices. The cheap mobile packages are helping the process even more. Indian market is dominated by Nokia, which are also the world’s largest mobile phone maker. And Motorola would be hoping to catch-up with them soon.
