I wonder where they will setup base. For eg, Nothing has factories in the Southern state of Tamilnadu.
A more pertinent question is whether Apple will reduce iPhone's pricing in India. iPhones have a relatively low market share in India and part of the reason is the very expensive price. However, this premium price also leads people to save up for iPhones since they become to be seen as more of a valuable fashion accessory than just a smartphone. Previous generation iPhones often are on sale for this reason.
Apple won't lower its prices just for India. The best you can expect is prices similar to those in the US. The non-pro iPhones are already close to US pricing. It's the pro models that are outrageously expensive. And considering that Apple is only making non-pro models in India, I don't expect the pricing situation with pro models to change anytime soon.
