Flipkart is gearing up for its annual Big Billion Days sale, teasing a significant price cut for the iPhone 17. The e-commerce giant suggests the smartphone could be available for as low as the Rs 7X,XXX range, a substantial drop from its current Flipkart listing of Rs 98,400. This potential deal comes after Apple recently increased the official price of the iPhone 17 in India, following the launch of its iPhone 18 Pro series, pushing the starting price to Rs 99,900 for the 256GB model.
Prospective buyers can look forward to early bird offers commencing on September 24, ahead of the main Big Billion Days sale scheduled for the second week of October. Flipkart is also preparing additional incentives, including a 10% discount on select Axis Bank and ICICI Bank cards. Other benefits like Rs 1,250 welcome vouchers, cardless EMI options, and Flipkart Pay Later will also be available to further reduce the final purchase price.
The iPhone 17 originally launched in India at Rs 82,900 for the 256GB model. While the 512GB version is currently listed at Rs 1,24,900, Flipkart has not yet confirmed which specific storage variant will be available at the teased Rs 7X,XXX price point, nor the exact figure. An asterisk accompanying the teaser price indicates that terms and conditions will apply. For those planning to acquire an iPhone 17, exploring the September 24 early deal might prove beneficial before the broader festive sale begins.
