Tim Cook's agenda for India visit: To stem slump in sales
It’s the first time he’ll be visiting India since taking over from the late Steve Jobs in 2011

Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook is set to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi this week during his trip to India, which has emerged as a key market for the iPhone maker as it looks to stem a slump in sales.
It's the first time he'll be visiting India since taking over from the late Steve Jobs in 2011.
Apple India spokesperson Anand Bhaskaran confirmed that Cook will be coming to India from China - he's been to that country eight times since becoming CEO - on the second leg of his Asia trip but declined to give details of his itinerary.
Cook is likely to land in India late on Tuesday and meet Modi on Saturday, people with knowledge of this said, adding that the Apple CEO's visit will probably last for most of this week.
Cook's visit will put the spotlight firmly on India, a market which attracted Apple's focus only about two years ago. It also makes him less of the odd man out - the bosses at Facebook, Amazon, Google and Microsoft have paid multiple visits to the country.
His meetings in India will include one with Bharti Airtel Chairman Sunil Mittal, besides top industry executives, employees and trade partners, sources said. He is also expected to meet senior officials from Reliance Industries.
