Apple inaugurates 3rd India store in Bengaluru; open for public from Sept 2

The iPhone maker expands retail presence beyond Mumbai and Delhi as it targets India's growing smartphone market

Apple has inaugurated its third retail store in India and first in the country's technology hub of Bengaluru, marking the iPhone maker's continued push into one of the world's fastest-growing smartphone markets. The new Apple Hebbal store opens to the public on September 2 at 1 pm.

 

The store in Bengaluru joins Apple BKC in Mumbai, Apple Saket in Delhi, and the Apple Store online. Apple said the outlet will be a welcoming space for customers to explore its full lineup of products and experience the best service and support.

 

“We are delighted to open Apple Hebbal, a community hub that celebrates Bengaluru’s spirit of innovation,” said Deirdre O’Brien, senior vice president of Retail and People at Apple. “We can’t wait to connect with people here and inspire them to create, collaborate, and do amazing things with Apple. We’re excited to continue to bring Apple experiences to customers across India, who inspire us with their creativity and passion.”

 

 

At Apple Hebbal, customers can experience the latest products, including the iPhone 16 series, MacBook Pro with M4 chips, iPad Air with Apple Pencil Pro, and Apple Watch Series 10. Accessories such as AirPods 4 and AirTag are also on display.

 

Visitors are invited to explore the surrounding product tables and avenues, book a personalised shopping session with an Apple Specialist, and receive expert support at the Genius Bar. The dedicated Apple Pickup area lets customers easily collect their online orders at a time that’s convenient for them.

 

The store’s 70 team members hail from 15 states across India and are ready to help customers learn about Apple products, monthly financing options, and the Apple Trade In program. Customers can receive one-on-one support in-store with Personal Setup and switching to iOS.

 

Green operations and learning sessions

 

Like all Apple facilities, Apple Hebbal runs entirely on renewable energy and is carbon neutral. The store hosts sessions led by Apple Creatives on photography, Apple Intelligence, and creative uses of iPad and Apple Pencil. Group bookings are also available for families, students, and businesses.

 

Apple’s Business Team will support entrepreneurs and startups, offering tailored guidance, device solutions, and growth tools for small and medium enterprises.

 

Expansion beyond Mumbai and Delhi

 

The move represents the company's expansion beyond Mumbai and Delhi—into the southern technology corridor that houses global tech giants and India's burgeoning startup ecosystem, according to experts. It signals Apple's confidence in India's rising consumer purchasing power and its strategy to deepen retail presence in key metropolitan markets.
