The iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro models were available for pre-order in India on October 23 and the stock sold out within a few days. Both models have starting prices of Rs 79,990 and Rs 1,19,000, respectively. However, you can soften the blow of buying the latest iPhone by taking advantage of the many discounts offered alongside bank deals.
When you visit Apple’s official website and buy an iPhone 12, it shows that you can get up to Rs 22,000 with Apple’s trade-in for an old iPhone XR. On the 256GB iPhone XS, the discount was up to Rs 32,000, bringing the price of the iPhone 12 down to Rs 47,900. For a 128GB iPhone 11 model, the trade-in price was up to Rs 34,000.

This offer may be more affordable if you have HDFC credit / debit card holders. For iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro, it offers a cashback of Rs 6,000 and Rs 5,000 respectively. After the bank discount and top exchange, I can get the new iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 Pro for just Rs 39,900 and Rs 80,900 respectively.
