Apple likely to raise iPhone prices in India amid supply shortage
Apple is expected to increase the price of the iPhone 17 in India by up to ₹12,000 (about $150), raising the base price to roughly ₹95,000. The hike is linked to a global component shortage that has left many Indian retailers out of stock; dealers report that fresh supplies are only expected in August. A tipster cited by India Today said Apple may announce the new pricing at the start of August, mirroring recent 10‑11 % price rises in Japan and earlier price hikes for MacBooks and iPads. The combination of rising component costs and limited inventory is driving speculation that Apple will adjust iPhone pricing in the Indian market soon.
