HMD Global, the maker of Nokia-branded handsets, is keen to scale up its mobile exports from India, as the company looks at various levers, including sourcing more components locally, to deepen its commitment towards the manufacturing ecosystem in the country, a senior official said.

India is a "very important" market for HMD Global, and the company considers it to also be a key global destination for sourcing and manufacturing, Sanmeet Singh Kochhar, Vice President of HMD Global, said.

On Tuesday, the firm announced a slew of devices — Nokia G21 smartphone, Nokia C01 Plus, two feature phones — Nokia 105 Plus and Nokia 105.

The company also announced two audio accessories — Nokia Go Earbuds+ and Nokia Comfort Earbuds.
