- Canada – Around ₹72,000

In contrast, buying the same iPhone 17 in India costs nearly ₹12,000 more than in the US.
Things to Keep in Mind if Buying Abroad
- eSIM only in US models (no physical SIM slot).
- Some regions sell carrier-locked models that may not work in India.
- Global warranty is valid, so service in India won’t be an issue.
Takeaway
Apple fans in India continue to pay one of the highest global prices for iPhones. While the US, Canada, and Japan remain the most cost-effective markets, importing a device is only practical if friends or family can bring it in — otherwise, taxes and travel nullify the savings.
