The safest starting point is Apple’s India Online Store or Apple’s official Reseller Locator. Before paying elsewhere, check that the exact seller and store are authorised, compare the precise iPhone configuration and total price, and read that seller’s written return and replacement terms. A marketplace listing or a low price does not by itself establish authorisation.
Where to buy an iPhone in India
Apple says you can buy iPhone from the Apple Online Store and that Apple products are also sold through authorised resellers. To find a reseller, use Apple’s Reseller Locator or the contact options on Apple’s India contact page.

If you choose a marketplace or another retail channel, verify the actual seller—not just the platform, product page, or storefront branding. The sources here do not establish that any particular marketplace seller is authorised. If you cannot confirm the seller through Apple’s official route, do not treat the listing as verified.
How to check whether an iPhone seller is authorised
- Identify the seller precisely. Note the legal or trading name and, for a physical shop, the specific store. On a marketplace, check who will actually sell and invoice the phone; the marketplace itself may not be the seller.
- Check Apple’s official locator. Search for the seller using Apple’s Reseller Locator. Match the result to the seller and location you intend to use rather than relying on a similar name.
- Confirm the offer in writing. Ask the seller to confirm the exact iPhone model and storage configuration, total payable amount, invoice details, and applicable return, replacement, and defect-handling terms.
- Compare complete offers. Compare seller identity and authorisation, exact configuration, total price and invoice detail, written terms, and warranty/support documentation. Prices and availability change, so check them at the time of purchase; there is no reliable price benchmark or retailer ranking established here.
Read the return and replacement terms before paying
Apple’s India shopping help says purchases made at Apple Store in India cannot be refunded or exchanged. That is Apple Store’s policy; it does not establish the terms of an independent reseller or marketplace seller. Read the chosen seller’s own written policy before payment, including what it will do if the phone arrives damaged, has a defect, or is not the configuration ordered. Do not assume another seller follows Apple’s policy or offers more generous terms.

Keep and check the invoice or receipt
Apple recommends keeping the receipt. For a receipt from an authorised reseller, Apple says it should be legible and include the following details:
- A clear description of the device.
- The purchase date.
- The receipt number.
- The price paid.
- The reseller’s contact information.
- The serial number, if the reseller normally includes it.
Keep the original invoice or receipt and any order confirmation and warranty documents in a safe place. Check the invoice at purchase so errors can be raised with the seller promptly.

If you are buying through Apple’s India Online Store for a business
Apple says prices on apple.com India include GST, which is detailed on the invoice. If your business needs a GSTIN invoice for an Apple Online Store order, enter the GSTIN during checkout: Apple says it cannot be added after the order has processed. These are Apple Online Store details; do not assume the same invoice process applies to an independent seller. Confirm its documentation requirements directly.
Understand the warranty and your consumer-law rights
Apple states that a new Apple-branded product has a one-year limited manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Apple also says this warranty is additional to rights under applicable Indian consumer law, not a replacement for them. Keep the receipt and the warranty terms together so you can refer to them if support is needed.
