Apple manufacturing partner Wistron has almost completed a land deal that would see it open a new plant in India, Reuters reports. A source close to the deal claims the plant would at least in part be responsible for producing Apple’s iPhone 6s, as Apple looks to expand its presence in India.

The company began producing the iPhone SE in India last year as part of a larger effort to gain access to the Indian market, allowing Apple to sell the entry-level device to customers looking for an affordable iPhone. The 6s — launched more than two years ago — is another good fit in that regard and would give customers in India a more affordable larger screen option that has come into favor in much of the rest of the world.
Wistron has already gained federal approval to import machinery from China to India that can be used to set up new assembly lines, and local assembly will save Apple money on import taxes and allow the company to offer the phones for a lower price in a market obsessed with cost.
