New Delhi, Sep 11
The surge in shipments is driven by heavy discounts on older models and strategic pricing of the newly launched iPhone 17 series.
The newly-launched iPhone 17 is priced at Rs. 82,900 ($940.54), slightly higher than the iPhone 16. The base model offering 128 GB storage has been discontinued, with all new variants now offering 256GB storage at a lower price compared to the previous generation's Rs. 89,900 ($1,019) for the same capacity.
India is also becoming central to Apple’s manufacturing plans, with one in every five iPhones now being produced in the country.
