According to an Economic Times report, Apple’s retail chief Deirdre O’Brien will be present for the inauguration of the stores. However, some other reports have claimed that Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook, may also visit India to represent the company’s doubled-down efforts for what may emerge as one of its biggest manufacturing hubs in the world. Over the past few months, Apple has shifted most of the production of its marquee product, the iPhone, to India as it looks to minimize manufacturing in China.
