Update: The Apple Store is now live. 

Apple's online store in India is all set to go live today. The site still mentions it's ‘coming soon' for now and is expected to go live ‘shortly', but a quick glance tells you that the store, when it goes live, will offer shopping assistance, free no-contact delivery, different payment options, free sessions to understand how to use your device better, being able to engrave your Apple devices in six Indian languages, etc.

So far, if you were buying Apple products in India, you were relying on third-party authorised Apple retailers or e-commerce platforms like Amazon and Flipkart.

Launched right before the upcoming festive season in the country, Apple's online store will be making way for Apple's first brick-and-mortar store in the country that is expected to come up soon.
