iPhone X, Other iPhone Model Prices Go Up In India

Barring its locally-assembled iPhone SE model, Apple raised prices of iPhone handsets by an average 3.5 per cent.

Mumbai: Apple Inc has increased the prices of most of its iPhone models, including iPhone X, in India after the government last week raised taxes on imported phones in a bid to boost domestic manufacturing. Barring its locally-assembled iPhone SE model, Apple raised prices of iPhone handsets by an average 3.5 per cent, according to a price sheet reviewed by Reuters. Its priciest iPhone X model now costs Rs 1,05,720 for a 256 gigabyte (GB) variant, according to Apple's India website, an increase of 3.6 per cent. The price of a 256 GB iPhone 8 has risen by 3.1 per cent to Rs 79,420.

As Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government strives to boost manufacturing of phones in India - the world's second-biggest market by mobile subscriptions and among the top three countries by annual smartphone sales, it last week raised the customs duty on phones to 15 per cent from 10 per cent.

That was set to make imported phones, including Apple iPhones, costlier. Some other top phone brands, such as Samsung Electronics Co Ltd and Xiaomi, assemble the majority of their phones sold in the Indian market locally.

Apple's Taiwanese contract manufacturer, Wistron, assembles the iPhone SE in the technology hub of Bengaluru in southern India. Apple also has plans to expand local manufacturing in India but wants a range of incentives and tax breaks from the federal government which New Delhi has yet to agree to.An analyst said a small increase in the price of iPhones was unlikely to dent Apple's less than 3 per cent market share in India, where it's seen as an aspirational brand but its steep pricing puts it beyond the reach of many.

"Apple's halo as a premium brand in India cannot be taken away by this meagre price rise," said Navkendar Singh of technology researcher IDC.Basic or feature phones still comprise a large chunk of India's roughly 750 million mobile phones, although sales of smartphones are growing faster. Alphabet Inc's Google earlier this month unveiled a new version of its Android mobile phone software with an aim to power low-cost entry-level smartphones.

GUJARAT ELECTION RESULT LIVE NEWS COVERAGE

With campaigning for Gujarat Assembly elections entering its final day, poll fever is getting shriller and acrimonious in the state. After 49 days of intense campaigning, where leaders from the BJP and the Congress descended on the state, the poll rhetoric in Gujarat has gone from bad to worse (which is the case during most elections in India).

While the initial poll speeches revolved around issues like development, uplifting backward castes, pushing for better infrastructure in the state and criticising the government’s policies, the rhetoric has come down to vicious personal attacks and moved away from issues which matter. However, that shouldn’t surprise anyone as that is the tradition with all elections in India.

GUJARAT ELECTION RESULTELECTION RESULT GUJARAT ELECTION RESULT 2017ELECTION RESULT LIVE

Since 2015, elections in India have presumed newfound importance because of two reasons. First of all, BJP’s fortunes have been shining ever since 2014 General Elections. In the five-state election in 2016, BJP’s extraordinary performance fostered their aspiration for what the party leadership had labelled Congress-mukt Bharat. Second of all, Congress was (is) facing its worst electoral phase since its conception. Rout after rout coupled with weak higher leadership was hurting the party more than ever.

Fever pitch campaigning ahead of Gujarat polls by both the parties brings back memories of Uttar Pradesh elections which was the last major litmus test for the BJP. In an unprecedented victory, the party shot to power in the state after 14 years — the BJP won a two-thirds majority in Uttar Pradesh — 325 seats with an 81 percent strike rate and 41.5 percent vote share. Majority of the opinion polls predicted a hung Assembly in the state. Congress, which had allied with the Samajwadi Party, which together could bag only 55 seats in the state Assembly in March this year.

Gujarat, for different reasons, is as important than Uttar Pradesh. Historically a trade state, Gujarat is Modi’s pride. Losing Gujarat, where the BJP has been ruling for the past 22 years, will be a terrible fall of face for Gujarat and even though elections in Gujarat are being fought on different issues than they were fought in Uttar Pradesh, there are several parallels which can be drawn between the two polls and the parties’ rhetoric in the run-up to the elections:

Gujarat Election Result 2017 LIVE Updates

Gujarat Election Result: Just over three hours into the counting of votes for the Gujarat Assembly elections, the BJP can finally breathe easy as they extend their lead comfortably to around 105 seats for the 182-seat Assembly. An hour into the counting of votes, the Congress had suddenly gained on the BJP and at one stage even overtook the them as markets fell over 850 points as BJP was staring at a possible defeat. But after 45 very nervous minutes for the BJP, the fortunes turned around for the party in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's home state.

Ahmedabad: After a high-pitched and bitterly-fought election campaign by the BJP and Congress in Gujarat, all eyes now focus on the Gujarat Assembly election result which will be declared today. Counting of votes began at 8 am sharp. The BJP has extended the lead after the Congress gave a tough challenge. The Congress, which exit polls predicted would lose the Gujarat election, seemed to be proving them wrong. At one time, experts and analysts even considered a win for the Congress, which would be a first for them in two decades in Gujarat. Markets had collapsed with the Sensex going down 850 points, but has recovered the loss and is up 50 pointscurrently. 

The election in Gujarat is seen as a prestige battle for both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and newly-elected Congress president Rahul Gandhi. For PM Modi, Gujarat being his home state makes it a must-win battle for the BJP, while for Rahul Gandhi, who is now Congress president, a loss would be seen as a bad start, especially because he was the face of the Congress and spearheaded its campaign and strategy in the state. The BJP has been ruling in Gujarat for the last two decades and a win today will be significant for them ahead of the 2019 general elections. While it is neck and neck in Gujarat, the BJP has extended its lead over the Congress in Himachal Pradesh.

Assembly election results 2017: BJP leads in Gujarat after initial scare, Congress trails in Himachal Pradesh

Assembly election results 2017: Belying expectations, initial trends have, however, thrown up a surprise in Gujarat, showing BJP and Congress locked in a neck and neck battle. As of now, BJP is moving ahead.

It’s December 18. EVMs have been opened and brisk counting of votes in two states that went to polls is underway. It will be known in a matter of hours if the BJP under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi will retain its stronghold on Gujarat for a sixth straight term, and if it will make a comeback in Himachal Pradesh to capture power in the 16th state.

A majority of exit polls have predicted it can. In both states. Belying expectations, initial trends have, however, thrown up a surprise in Gujarat, showing BJP and Congress locked in a neck and neck battle. As of now, BJP is moving ahead.

According to latest figures from aapkasamachar, BJP is leading in 105 seats, while Congress is ahead in 85 seats. In the 182-seat Assembly, BJP holds 121 seats while Congress has 61. The half-way mark is 92.

Gujarat is a prestige battle for Prime Minister Narendra Modi who steered a no-holds-barred campaign against the Congress. The results will be no less a telling statement on the new Congress president Rahul Gandhi, who has seemingly set his party on a revival course, with his relentless attacks on the ruling BJP.

In Himachal Pradesh, the trends, according to NDTV, show the saffron party leading in 39 seats. The Congress is ahead in 25 seats.

The exit polls have predicted a clear majority for the BJP whose CM candidate in Himachal Pradesh, Prem Kumar Dhumal began drawing crowds to his village in Hamirpur. Initial trends, however, show Dhumal trailing in Sujanpur.

Congress leader and Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh has insisted that Monday’s results will prove the pollsters wrong.

The days before the voting saw political leaders of both mainstream rivals hit the campaign trail, particularly in Gujarat, with all their might. During the campaign, Modi tried to corner the Congress on issues like Ram temple, alleged Pakistani hand in Gujarat polls and now-suspended senior Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar’s “neech”remark.

Rahul Gandhi kept up its attack on Modi over GST and unemployment among other issues. The Congress joined hands with prominent Patidar, OBC, and Dalit leaders — Hardik Patel, Alpesh Thakor and Jigesh Mevani. It remains to be seen if the broad social coalition will work in the party’s favour.

The results will also set the tone for the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.
