New Delhi, Oct 31
Apple CEO Tim Cook has said that the US-based tech giant set a September quarter revenue record in emerging markets and an all-time revenue record in India, led by robust iPhone sales.
In an earnings call with analysts after posting strong quarterly results on Thursday (US time), Cook said that when it comes to retail, “we’re heading into our busiest time of year with our best-ever lineup. In the last few months, we’ve opened new stores in emerging markets like India and the UAE and new locations in the US and China.”
The global iPhone revenue was $49 billion, up 6 per cent year-over-year, driven by the iPhone 16 family.
“iPhone grew in the vast majority of the markets we track, with September quarter records in many emerging markets, including Latin America, the Middle East, and South Asia, and an all-time record in India,” added Kevan Parekh, CFO, Apple.
