Apple Limits iPhone Purchases to Two Units Per Customer in India Amid High Demand

Analysed 22 Oct 2026·5 sources analysed·India·Technology
Apple Limits iPhone Purchases to Two Units Per Customer in India Amid High DemandPreviousNext

Apple has limited iPhone purchases to two units per customer across all models in India, including the newly launched iPhone Duo foldable smartphone. This restriction applies to both online and possibly in-store orders, aiming to curb bulk buying amid high demand and limited supply. Delivery estimates for pre-orders have extended into early 2027. Apple has not officially explained the reason for the cap, but it is seen as a measure to ensure wider availability during the launch period.
