“The made-in-India iPhone 6s will be only sold in India like iPhone SE since it will take time to scale up capacity. In fact, Apple will continue with the import of iPhone 6s until capacity improves. Hence, there will be no price correction for the locally manufactured units. The made-in-India iPhone 6s model will hit the stores soon,” an executive told the publication. 

To recall, the brand started the assembly of the iPhone SE last year. This move will surely help Apple to bring down the cost of the iPhone 6s as it will be exempted from the import duty. The move will also help the brand to strengthen its position in the mid-premium segment, which is dominated by the likes of Samsung, OnePlus and more.
