Before meeting PM Modi, Cook met Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw too.
On Tuesday, he launched Apple's first official retail store in India at the Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) in Mumbai.
Similar to the grand opening of Apple's first India store in Mumbai, Cook will welcome customers at the inauguration of the second store in Saket's Select City Mall in Delhi on Thursday.
The Saket store is smaller than the Apple Store opened in Jio World Drive at Bandra Kurla Complex.
