\nPreviously, Ponwar had been responsible for the App Store, Apple Music and iTunes business in the Middle East, Turkey, Africa and India. Apple declined to comment on the change of profile for Ponwar.
\n
\nBy appointing a point person solely for the India market, Apple is sending out strong signals and making local strides in a market where iPhone sales grew 56 per cent on-year when Apple reported its first ever iPhone sales decline globally.
\n
\nIndia was among the few bright spots for Apple in its second quarter earnings, which saw its largest growing market China shrink – revenue fell by 11 per cent — and sales in developed markets slowing in the face of smartphone saturation.
\n
In China, Apple dropped to the No. 5 position with a 10.8 per cent share of the smartphones sold in May, down from 12 per cent a year before, according to Counterpoint Technology Market Research. Besides selling iPhones<\/a> and Macs<\/a> through resellers, Apple intends to open its iconic retail stores in India.
\n
\nThe Indian government has reached out to the company on renewing its application to set up wholly owned stores in the country, after rebuffing it the first time over local-sourcing exemptions. The rules have since changed.
\n
\nThe move came after Apple CEO Tim Cook visited India and opened its new office in Hyderabad, investing about $25 million and creating up to 4,000 jobs.
\n
\nThe centre will focus on developing Maps for iPhones, iPads, Macs and Apple Watch. Cook also announced an accelerator facility in Bengaluru that would support entrepreneurs and app developers.\n\n<\/body>","next_sibling":[{"msid":53099094,"title":"Reliance Jio bond issue attracts bids worth Rs 3,700 crore","entity_type":"ARTICLE","link":"\/news\/reliance-jio-bond-issue-attracts-bids-worth-rs-3700-crore\/53099094","category_name":null,"category_name_seo":"telecomnews"}],"related_content":[],"msid":53108279,"entity_type":"ARTICLE","title":"Apple appoints point person for AppStore & iTunes for India market","synopsis":"India was among the few bright spots for Apple in its second quarter earnings, which saw its largest growing market China shrink \u2013 revenue fell by 11 per cent.","titleseo":"telecomnews\/apple-tells-chief-of-appstore-itunes-to-focus-only-on-india","status":"ACTIVE","authors":[{"author_name":"Gulveen Aulakh","author_link":"\/author\/19656\/gulveen-aulakh","author_image":"https:\/\/etimg.etb2bimg.com\/authorthumb\/19656.cms?width=100&height=100&hostid=268","author_additional":{"thumbsize":true,"msid":19656,"author_name":"Gulveen Aulakh","author_seo_name":"gulveen-aulakh","designation":"Assistant Editor","agency":false}}],"Alttitle":{"minfo":""},"artag":"ET Bureau","artdate":"2016-07-08 08:18:28","lastupd":"2016-07-08 17:26:14","breadcrumbTags":["Apple","itunes","AppStore","iPhones","Ponwar","Macs","Devices"],"secinfo":{"seolocation":"telecomnews\/apple-tells-chief-of-appstore-itunes-to-focus-only-on-india"}}" data-authors="[" gulveen aulakh"]" data-category-name="" data-category_id="" data-date="2016-07-08" data-index="article_1">
