Apple has cemented its footprint in India with its sixth official retail outlet and its second in Mumbai, in Sky City Mall in Borivali. The debut was officially initiated on February 26, 2026, bringing the brand’s cult-like popularity into a grand crowd of Apple fans that clearly showed up in that week’s opening in the country. This new store is an extension of Apple’s initiatives in India that expand consumer presence and make it a more compelling retail outlet.
Apple’s flagship store at Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), opened in 2023, is already located in Mumbai. Borivali not only lets Apple serve up products to people but also attracts people from the northern suburbs, families, students and professionals by bringing it closer to their everyday lives. The area where it sits at Sky City Mall is significant. Borivali has some of the fastest-growing areas in the city. Apple believes in being nearer to what is gradually but surely an expanding customer base, hence its location and location.
The Borivali shop aims to provide the full Apple experience. Visitors can check out the latest devices, such as the iPhone 17 series, iPhone Air, Apple Watch Ultra 3, Apple Watch Series 11, iPads, and Macs powered by the M5 chip. The store also features:
- Hands-on product demonstrations for customers to “try” devices before buying.
- Technical assistance/repair support with Genius Bar.
- Today at Apple sessions where, for a day, they have free workshops which cover creative skills including photography, music and coding.
- A contemporary design that reflects the global retail identity of Apple, with open spaces and environmentally friendly materials.
Just like every Apple store around the world, the Borivali outlet operates on 100% renewable energy and is committed to carbon neutrality. This is consistent with Apple’s goal of reducing its footprint in the world by providing the best technology.
Apple Borivali opens in an encouraging sign of the company’s belief that India is a key developing market. India is one of the fastest-growing smartphone markets and Apple's premium positioning in this market caters to aspirational buyers. By expanding outside of the South Mumbai area, Apple has broadened its brand.
The newly opened Borivali store is not only a retail outlet but a center for technology, inspiration and community. Apple has yet again struck a chord among Indian consumers, with big crowds at the launch. The Sky City Mall store represents yet another step for Apple as it continues moving its business to become more rooted in India, marrying innovation, sustainability, and customer experience.
