South Korean President Moon Jae-in and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi formally opened the company’s expanded manufacturing plant in Nodia, about an hour outside New Delhi, on Monday.
Built on 32 acres of land next to Samsung’s (SSNLF) original factory in India, the plant will allow the South Korean firm to nearly double the number of smartphones it makes in India every year from 68 million to 120 million by 2020.
