Alphabet’s India Expansion Amid Stock Struggles
Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) shares face mounting pressure as 2025 unfolds, lagging behind tech peers Microsoft and Meta.

This precedes planned physical retail locations in the world’s second-largest mobile market—a strategic counter to Apple’s established Mumbai and Delhi stores.
