Apple Saket, the company's first retail shop in Delhi and second retail location in India, was launched last month by Apple CEO Tim Cook. Apple Saket opened to the public on April 20, after the April 18 launch of Apple BKC as India's first official retail shop. Apple has rented 8,417.83 square feet of space on the first floor of Delhi's Select Citywalk mall for about Rs 40 lakh per month, plus a revenue sharing payment. According to individuals acquainted with the situation, Apple Saket sold iPhones, AirPods, iPads, and other items valued roughly Rs 2 crore in the first ten days. 

The shop, which Apple has rented for ten years, was formerly occupied by Aditya Birla Group's apparel brand Pantaloons. Since the first day, Apple Saket has seen a high volume of visitors. As one might expect, sources reveal that the iPhone is the store's best-selling item.
