Apple is set to further strengthen its retail footprint in India with the launch of its fourth official Apple Store at Kopa Mall, Pune, on September 4, 2025.

The Pune outlet will join Apple’s existing flagship stores in Mumbai (Apple BKC), Delhi (Apple Saket), and Bengaluru (Apple VR Mall). The launch is part of Apple’s broader retail expansion strategy, reflecting the brand’s increasing focus on India as a high-growth market.

Customers in Pune can look forward to the signature Apple Store experience — from exclusive product launches, hands-on sessions, and technical support through the Genius Bar, to Today at Apple workshops that foster creativity and innovation.

Industry experts view this move as a significant step, especially at a time when India is emerging as a manufacturing and consumption hub for Apple. Pune’s growing urban population, tech-savvy consumers, and strategic retail positioning make it an ideal location for the company’s expansion.

With this launch, Apple continues to invest in strengthening its connection with Indian customers, offering them not just products but also a complete Apple ecosystem experience.

📍 Store Opening Date: September 4, 2025

Apple to Open Third India Retail Store at Hebbal, Bengaluru on September 2

Apple is set to launch Apple Hebbal, its third official retail store in India, on September 2, 2025, at the newly developed Phoenix Mall of Asia in North Bengaluru. This move represents Apple’s deepening commitment to the Indian market and solidifies Bengaluru as Apple’s largest operational hub outside Cupertino, California.

The store is more than just a place to shop. At Apple Hebbal, customers will experience the full range of Apple’s products, receive support from Specialists, Geniuses, and Business teams, and take part in Today at Apple sessions — free, educational events led by Apple Creatives. These sessions empower users with skills in photography, art, coding, and even Apple Intelligence.

Visually, the store is a celebration of Indian culture. The barricade artwork, revealed ahead of the opening, features vibrant feathers inspired by the Peacock — India’s national bird and a symbol of pride. It sets the tone for a unique customer experience rooted in both innovation and cultural identity.

Apple’s growing India presence extends far beyond its retail outlets. The company and its partners have leased nearly 1 million sq ft of real estate in Mumbai and Bengaluru since 2023, including large-format offices and premium retail space. Recent deals include:

  • 268,737 sq ft leased at Embassy Zenith, Sankey Road (office space)
  • 11,000 sq ft for the Apple Hebbal store
  • Over 410,000 sq ft at Prestige Mink Square, Cubbon Road — one of the largest single-location leases in the city

As India’s role grows not just as a consumption hub but also as a key manufacturing and innovation base for Apple, the opening of Apple Hebbal marks a significant chapter in the brand’s journey here.
