The USD 117.2 billion revenue was down 5 per cent year-over-year, from nearly USD 124 billion in December 2021 \u201cas a result of a challenging environment.\u201d \u201cWe actually did fairly well through COVID in India. And I&#8217;m even more bullish now on the other side of it, or hopefully, on the other side of it. And that&#8217;s the reason why we&#8217;re investing there. We&#8217;re bringing retail there and bringing the online store there and putting a significant amount of energy there. I&#8217;m very bullish on India,\u201d Cook said at an earnings call after Apple reported financial results for its fiscal 2023 first quarter ended December 31, 2022.<\/p><p>He was responding to a question on Apple&#8217;s plans for India as the market emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p><p>Responding to another question on Apple making strides in India, Cook said \u201clooking at the business in India, we set a quarterly revenue record and grew very strong double digits year-over-year.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content_5\" id=\"trade-2363448064\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4023722985638610\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- in_content_2_news -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4023722985638610\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7925020301\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div><p>\u201cAnd so we feel very good about how we performed, and that was &#8212; that&#8217;s despite the headwinds that we&#8217;ve talked about,\u201d Cook said, adding that \u201ctaking a step back, India is a hugely exciting market for us and is a major focus. We brought the online store there in 2020. We will soon bring Apple retail there.&#8221; \u201cSo we&#8217;re putting a lot of emphasis on the market.

He said growth for the company is coming from every major product category and geographic segment, with strong double-digit increases in emerging markets such as Brazil, Mexico, India, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam.<\/p><p>In a statement, Cook said that during the December quarter, Apple achieved a major milestone and now has more than two billion active devices as part of its growing installed base.<\/p><p>&#8220;As we all continue to navigate a challenging environment, we are proud to have our best lineup of products and services ever, and as always, we remain focused on the long term and are leading with our values in everything we do,\u201d Cook said.
