The Pixel 8 phone was launched this month. It costs Rs 75,999 and the Pixel 8 Pro is Rs 1,06,999. So people could buy newly launched phone from October 12.

Ashwini Vaishnaw said mobile making has grown a lot in India. Now, it’s worth $44 billion and we even send $11 billion worth phones to other countries.

Mobile manufacturing was practically negligible nine years back. But today India has close to $44 billion worth of manufacturing in India, with close to $11 billion of exports.

Because of good schemes from India, many companies now make their products here. For example, new iPhones and Samsung phones are made in India.

Google will not just stick with phones they will also make Chromebooks here. Last month, Google and HP decided to make Chromebooks in India together. Chromebooks are simple computers that use Google’s system.
