The company, however, is targeting after sales service, and will be focusing heavily on creating a network of service centres across the Indian market. HMD Global had so far only confirmed that the Nokia 3, Nokia 5, and Nokia 6 smartphones will be making their way to the Indian market by Q2 2017.

Many tech enthusiasts expected new Nokia devices to launch when HMD Global took the stage at the MWC 2017 trade show on Sunday. The company didn't disappoint as it unveiled the new Nokia 3 and Nokia 5 Android phones while confirmed global availability details for the Nokia 6 smartphone. The company also brought back the Nokia 3310 feature phone with refreshed design.
