The most critical factor behind the move, as per sources, is the fact that the LG was being outpaced by the aggressive marketing strategies and pricing from local phone makers. Vendors such as Xiaomi, Oppo, Huawei have been largely dominating the country for years and have made it nearly impossible for anyone else to break in.
