In July, at its AGM 2020, Reliance announced that Google is investing $4.5 billion in Jio as part of its recently announced $10 billion India digitization fund.

It also said that the wo companies are also entering into a commercial agreement to jointly develop entry-level affordable smartphones. These Android devices are said to come with optimizations to the Android operating system and the Play Store to help smartphones reach more Indians.
Now, a report from Business Standard claims that Reliance Jio is looking at a plan to outsource and manufacture over 100 million low-cost smartphones.

These will be built on the Google Android platform. Moreover, Jio is planning to bundle these phones with data packs. The announcement could come in December or early next year.
For reference, Reliance has previously executed a similar plan in 2017 with the launch of the Jio Phone.
