In a significant move, Apple has announced a price reduction for its iPhone models in India, ranging from 3% to 4%. This decision comes in response to the Indian government’s recent reduction of import duties on smartphones from 20% to 15%. This marks the first time Apple has lowered prices on current-generation iPhone models in India, underscoring the country’s increasing importance as a key market for the tech giant.
Price reductions across iPhone models
The price cuts for Apple’s iPhones vary across different models. The made-in-India iPhone 13, iPhone 14, and iPhone 15 have seen a modest reduction of Rs 300. The iPhone SE has had its price reduced by Rs 2,300. However, the most significant price drops are for the iPhone 15 Pro models. The iPhone 15 Pro 128GB, originally priced at Rs 1,34,900, is now available for Rs 1,29,800—a difference of Rs 5,100. The iPhone 15 Pro Max, which initially retailed for Rs 1,59,900, can now be purchased for Rs 1,54,000, reflecting a reduction of Rs 5,900.
E-commerce discounts
Apple’s price cuts have sparked a wave of additional discounts from major e-commerce platforms like Flipkart, Amazon, and others, making it an opportune time to buy a new iPhone. Prices are expected to drop even further during upcoming sales.
