Christ, google must be kicking themselves for being so permissive with android. Unless they impose similar requirements on apple, this seems like a punishment for being as permissive as they are.

iPhone has a tiny market share in India. They probably don't consider them large enough to be worth regulating.
Apple is not selling iOS to Samsung with extra conditions like : you should not offer other operating systems or you should not pre-install our competitors", "you should not make our apps uninstallable"

Apple is breaching the rules but in a different way

Android is platform used by multiple OEMs, Apple is only one.
