Apple passed $10B in annual sales in India for the first time in FY 2026, up from $9B in 2024-25 and $6B in 2022-23, as it expands its retail footprint  —  Apple Inc. exceeded $10 billion in annual sales in India for the first time last fiscal year.

NB: $10 billion was for the 12-month period running to March. It represents a 11% year-on-year increase over the previous fiscal year.

The bulk of the sales are for the iPhone, the source claimed. However, the demand for other products, such as iPad and Mac sales, also rose in the year.

Compared to other markets, India is still relatively small. Greater China recorded $18.8 billion in revenue in Apple’s most recent quarter and Japan $6.6 billion.

It’s also facing exchange rate headwinds with the rupee declining 10% against the dollar.

Moreover, the entry-level iPhone 17 is $870 in local currency versus $800 in the United States (though US buyers have to pay additional state sales tax).
