American technology giant Apple’s chief executive Tim Cook on Wednesday met ICICI Bank’s top brass at the country’s largest private sector lender’s corporate headquarters here.

Cook, whose every meeting is being closely watched here for cues about Apple’s business plans in India, walked into the ICICI Bank Towers in the Bandra Kurla Complex business district here and spent over an hour there, sources said.

He met the bank’s managing director and CEO Chanda Kochhar and executive directors at a closed-door meeting, they said but refused to divulge what was discussed.

ICICI Bank was among the first to introduce a banking application on the Apple Watch, even before the gadget got launched in the country.

Over the past few years, it has also introduced a slew of other initiatives on the digital front, including a digital wallet, just like the ‘Apple Pay’ by the tech giant.
