The Apple iPhone 5 will go on sale in India today for a Price of Rs 45,500 for the 16 GB and Rs. 7000 increments for the subsequent capacities. The iPhone 5 intended for launch in October is being launched pre Diwali to bank in on the huge spending that occurs in the upcoming two weeks of festivities.
As we reported earlier, Apple has tied up with two major distribution networks in India, Redington and Ingram to deliver the iPhone sans Carrier distribution that used to occur previously. The Apple iPhone 5 was intended to be be launched in India with a 2 year warranty but that idea also seems to have been dropped. The Phone will be available amass in both the White and Black variants and according to distributors the socks are aplenty so no “black marketing” is expected.
