Apple's ipad, iphone And Mac Sales Shoot Up In India

Apple also registered an increase in the sales of iPhone in Indian market, despite the phone's premium pricing. Although Apple did not share the specific numbers for the Indian market, it did say that iPhone sales were up 55 percent year-on-year in BRIC (acronym for Brazil, Russia, India and China) countries.

Apple CEO Tim Cook said, "We sold over 35 million iPhones, setting a new third quarter record. We generated healthy growth in our entry priced, mid-tier and lead iPhone categories. I'm especially happy about our progress in the BRIC countries, where iPhone sales were up a very strong 55 percent year-over-year."

According to Cook it is worth pointing out that iPhone sales in India had seen a 55 percent increase in the last quarter, over the past year.  It has been offering cash-back offers and EMI and buyback schemes for some iPhone models. The company launched a cheaper 8GB variant of the iPhone 5C in May with buyback offers. The other iPhone models are also selling at a heavily discounted price via e-commerce retailers.

Apple also added that it has seen an increase in the sales of Macs in India and other markets. The price-sensitive Indian market is traditionally considered to be dominated by Windows PCs as Macs are priced much higher. The company claims to have registered double digit growth in the segment in the Indian market.

"We achieved strong double digit Mac growth across many countries, including the U.S., Canada, Mexico, the UK, Germany, France, Australia, China, India and the Middle-East. This growth is particularly impressive, given the contraction of the overall PC market. Macs have now gained global market share for 32 of the last 33 quarters," said Maestri.
