July 15 (Reuters) - Apple's ( AAPL ) India sales jumped

33% to a record of almost $8 billion in the year through March,

Bloomberg News reported on Monday, citing a person familiar with

the matter.

Apple's ( AAPL ) iPhones accounted for more than half of the sales,

the report said.

The company did not immediately respond to a Reuters request

for comment.

In April, Bloomberg News reported that Apple ( AAPL ) has assembled

$14 billion worth of iPhones in India last fiscal year, and

makes as much as 14% of its marquee devices from India.

Most iPhones made in India are produced at the Sriperumbudur

plant, about 25 miles west of Tamil Nadu's state capital

Chennai.
