Festive season is the time when almost all handset makers want to cash in on the "festive buying" sentiment of consumers and also announce deep discounts. E-commerce sites Amazon.in and Flipkart have also announced their annual Great Indian Sale and Big Billion Days Sale where they are offering bank offers, discounts and exchange bonuses on a range of smartphones and large appliances. Now, Apple is set to kick off its festive sale in India next week.


Apple's festive season sale will begin in India on October 15. The official teaser image of the sale has the iconic Apple logo made from cracker sparks. It also read: “Our festive offer will fire up on 15 October. Be ready for incredible savings.” The Apple India online store also says: "Store. The best way to buy the products you love."

Initially priced at Rs 79,900, the iPhone 13 is now available at a significantly reduced rate on the Amazon e-commerce platform. As per the official listing, the 128 GB storage variant of the iPhone 13 is presently up for grabs at Rs 48,999.
