Coolpad Chinese mobile phone maker will roll out India-made handsets in the first quarter of 2016.”We believe in ‘Make in India’ concept and to begin with, we will introduce made in India handsets from Q1 of 2016 in collaboration with Videocon, which has a base in Maharashtra,” Coolpad India CEO Syed Tajuddin said.
