Apple, Intel sign ‘protest letter’ against India’s PC import ban

Almost two weeks back, the government of India announced new rules on importing laptops, tablets, and all kinds of computers. The idea is to promote made in India products and reduced the cost of these electronic items. The move clearly hasn’t gone down well with the likes of Apple, Intel and other US-based companies. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple and others have urged the Indian government to reconsider its decision and written a protest letter.

The report states that about eight US-based trade groups have urged officials to urge India to reconsider the decision. The government of India has set November 1 as the deadline to impose the new rules.
