NEW DELHI: The government won't offer any special concessions to Apple but is reviewing its entire policy on mobile phone manufacturing as part of an effort to promote the 'Make in India' initiative, officials said. This could meet some of the demands that Apple has made apart from benefitting other phone makers as well.Apple had sought the concessions to set up plants in the country. The issue will be examined in depth at a high-level meeting with Apple executives next week. Another official said no decision had been taken but that concessions cannot be given to just one company. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had urged Cook to set up factories in India when they met during that trip.
