Mumbai, Jan 3 (IANS) Mumbai-headquartered device management service Servify on Thursday announced the acquisition of Bengaluru-based gadget repair service start-up iService for an undisclosed sum.
iService was founded in 2013 with operations in Bengaluru and New Delhi. It provides gadget repairs and services for smartphones and laptops at homes and its four brick-and-mortar service centres.

The iService branded service centres will continue to run independently even after the acquisition, Servify said.
