DELHI: Tech giant Apple has reportedly decided to increase the maximum retail price of the entire iPhone range in India. This move is a result of the recently announced Budget which has increased prices of imported mobiles and tablets in India.

Likewise, the 16GB iPhone 6 Plus will now cost Rs 65,000, with the 64GB and 128GB variants costing Rs 74,000 and Rs 83,000 respectively. The iPhone 6 Plus models will now cost Rs 65,000 for 16GB, Rs 74,000 for 64GB and Rs 83,000 for 128GB.
The older iPhone models have received a price cut though. The iPhone 5S 16GB is now priced at Rs 47,000 and the iPhone 5S 32GB is priced at Rs 51,500.
Earlier this month, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus models had received a price cut online. Third party sellers on major e-commerce sites like Flipkart and Amazon were also offering a discount ranging from Rs 3,000 to Rs 5,000 for the new models.
