Apple has officially announced the opening dates of its retail stores in Mumbai and Delhi, marking a significant expansion in the country. The new stores, Apple BKC in Mumbai and Apple Saket in Delhi, will open their doors to customers on April 18 and 20, respectively. Apple BKC, as the name suggests, will be located at the Bandra Kurla Complex (at the Jio World Drive Mall, to be specific) in South Mumbai, while Apple Saket will be located in South Delhi's Saket.
The design vision of the Apple Saket store was revealed this morning, featuring a unique design inspired by Delhi's many gates, with each one signifying a new chapter in the city's storied past. The colourful artwork celebrates Apple's second store in India, located in the nation's capital, Apple said in a press release.
How Are Apple Stores Different?
Both stores will offer customers the opportunity to explore Apple's latest product lineup, find creative inspiration and get personalised service and support from the store's team of Specialists, Creatives, and Geniuses. Apple's official stores around the globe are known for prioritising customer ease and comfort. For starters, you can do as much window shopping as you want at the stores, without feeling the pressure from sales personnel to buy something. Additionally, Apple Stores are generally considered to be a one-stop spot for purchases as well as repairs or servicing.
