Indians tell Apple it will not get special tax treatment
@ 2017/12/11Apple staff need counselling
The Indian Government has told the fruity cargo cult Apple that it will not be a special tax case.
Apple asked India to defer a planned increase in import taxes on mobile phone parts so it can expand its iPhone manufacturing in the country. Basically Apple is saying that unless you do what you are told we will not set up all those plants which are designed to make us rich in your country.
However it seems that the government is not buying that argument and despite Apple lobbying politicians and officials for months demanding government tax breaks and incentives the Indians do not see the point. Apple needs the Indian market more than the Indian government needs Apple, particularly as the Chinese market has become bored with Jobs’s Mob’s expensive toys.
