Apple opens store in Mumbai

Apple Inc is set to open its first official retail store in Mumbai, the iPhone maker said on Wednesday.

The Cupertino, California-based company launched an online retail store in India in 2020. Its 2021 plans for the launch of an offline retail store in the country were delayed because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Apple products have been sold in India for years on e-commerce platforms such as Amazon.com Inc and Walmart Inc’s Flipkart as well as through resellers.
