Flipkart’s 2026 Big Billion Days to Slash iPhone 17 Price to Around ₹80,000

Flipkart’s Big Billion Days 2026 sale will list the Apple iPhone 17 at an effective ₹79,999 after bank and exchange discounts, making it one of the steepest price cuts on the platform. Early access for eligible members starts on 8 October, with the main sale opening to all shoppers on 9 October. The retailer teased the iPhone 17 in September, showing a price tag of ₹7X,XXX or under ₹80,000, but did not confirm the exact figure or storage variant. Details on Flipkart’s website and NDTVProfit on 26 September indicate the post‑discount price of ₹79,999 when applicable bank offers and exchange benefits are applied. Instant discounts of up to 10% are available for purchases made with ICICI Bank or Axis Bank cards, and the site is promoting exchange offers and zero‑down‑payment EMI options for smartphones. Current listings show the iPhone 17 256GB at ₹82,900, with some offers bringing it down to ₹78,900 as of 28 September; these prices may change for the Big Billion Days event. Apple’s official Indian pricing lists the iPhone 17 at ₹99,900 for 256GB and ₹1,24,900 for 512GB, so the sale price represents a significant reduction. The iPhone 16 128GB is currently priced at ₹69,900 on Flipkart, and additional bank or exchange incentives during the festive sale could lower the effective cost further.

Context
