This FDI norms are hurdles but it should not be the only obstacle as there are many companies that are marketing their products successfully, in fact Dell is going to make $2billion from India alone and they have more than 20,000 employees there ... India is certainly a biggest growth market but then you need to concentrate on that properly by having active presence and that is what Apple lacks right now ...
- atishbabu 16y agofirst, don't think people who want to buy a Mac are considering buying a Dell or HP device, two different market segments with two different needs, that's like saying because the TATA Nano is selling well in India that Aston Martin should be prioritizing India as a key market despite there being more people who would actually purchase an Aston in a country like Dubai or Singapore or Belgium second, I never suggested that India was a small computer market, just saying that the original article does not address some reasons beyond Apple's control nor does it look at things from Apple's perspective, Apple is not stupid if it was worthwhile for them to prioritize India higher the company would, just look at their efforts in China in terms of the iPhone and opening Apple retail stores, every business has limited time and resources and people and you are going to use those things in the markets that gives you the best return on your investment
