Apple’s enterprise mobility head for the India region has quit to set up a new Indian smartphone company, selling Android devices.

Sharad Mehrotra joined Apple in October 2007, the year that Apple launched the iPhone. Since then he has worked to build Apple’s brand in India, which the company has been particularly keen on pushing over the past several years.

With CES, a.k.a. the world’s biggest Consumer Electronics Show, coming up this week, we’re about to hear a whole lot more about the Internet of Things and smart connected gadgets.
