<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">As part of its plan to sell more than 10 million Pixel phones this year, Google has told suppliers to begin producing its smartphones in India by the earliest possible quarter, according to a recent report in the Nikkei newspaper.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">The company said in October of last year that it would begin manufacturing smartphones in India and that its flagship Pixel 8 would be on sale in 2024, with a greater emphasis on a crucial growing region.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">According to the Nikkei report, which cited a source with intimate knowledge of the situation, the move will also help Google diversify its supply chain away from China.</p>
