Chinese handset maker Gionee has paired with Taiwanese firm Foxconn Technology Group and Dixon Technologies to make smart phones at its Sri City Plant in TN and phones and smartphones in Noida, UP. Foxconn is the world’s biggest contract manufacturer. Arvind Vohra, Country CEO and MD of India who holds 26% stake in its Indian arm said this will help the company to gain a market share of 4% in value terms and save on duties. This would drive sales in India. Gionee commenced operations in Q1 of 2013 and now aims to introduce a new model every month.
