Gionee to expand research and development team in India to localise products

Tech News -  "We have a dedicated team of 12 people, who are working on customising the experience for local needs. Hardware is  universally the same, it is the software that differentiates the experience.
  
"We plan to ramp this up and have about 30 highly skilled people as part of the team by the end of the year," said Gionee President William Lu.

The company, which claims to have about four percent share of the Indian handset market, said it is targeting to become one of the top 3-5 smartphone brands in the country in the next few years.

"Last year, we sold four million devices in India and 28 million globally. That is one-seventh of the total sales. This year, we expect the sales to touch 8 million. India would account for 20 percent of our revenues," he said.
