Why doesn't Apple Inc. recruit engineers from India (even from IITs, BITS Pilani, NITs and IIIT-H)?

Apple Inc. does recruit engineers from India, including from top institutions such as IITs, BITS, NITs, and IIITs. They have a dedicated team in India to find and recruit top talent from around the country. However, like any other company, they have certain criteria and standards that they look for in candidates, and they also have a limited number of open positions at any given time.

Therefore, even if an individual is highly qualified and comes from a prestigious institution, they may not be selected for a role at Apple. 

Apple initially hired students from IIIT Hyderabad because its head office is situated in Hyderabad. After this, Apple started approaching old IITs and even top NITs such as Trichy, Surathkal, and Warangal. You will be surprised to know that now Apple even visits BITS Pilani, Goa, and Hyderabad Campuses.

So you can rest assured as Apple is now recruiting actively from top technical institutes of the country.
