According to Gurman, the tech giant is currently planning to open its third store in Borivali, a suburb of Mumbai by 2025. 

Another Apple store will be getting launched at DLF Promenade Mall, New Delhi by 2026. According to the reports, this will be the 2nd largest Apple store in India, after the BKC Apple store. 

By 2027, Apple is planning to open another store in Mumbai. This will be Mumbai’s 3rd Apple store. Likely the location is going to be the seaside Worli area.
