iPhone 17 Series: When we speak of smartphones, it is quite evident that the devices that are making the most buzz are the iPhone 17 series smartphones, the launch for which took place just a few days ago at the so-called 'Awe Dropping' Apple event. Even with this much excitement for the smartphones, it is clear that the price tag on these devices in India might be demotivating for a few people to opt for the latest version of iPhone.

The latest iPhone 17 lineup is the most discussed topic amongst the tech circles recently, and its pricing in India has taken centre stage. But what are the reasons for its hefty price tag? Well, it has to do with high import duties, shipping costs, and subsequent government-levied taxes on the product, like GST, that push the price up. It is due to this reason that the current base variant of iPhone, the iPhone 17, is currently priced from Rs 82,900. This might not be the case everywhere, as countries having lower tax burdens will be offering the iPhone 17 series for a lower price than we have here.
