At a time when digitalization of the Indian economy is being sped up, Apple has opened its online store in keeping with the zeitgeist. On Wednesday, the world-famous technology giant made the move in style.

"We know how important it is for our customers to stay in touch with those they love and the world around them. We can’t wait to connect with our customers and expand support in India with the Apple Store online on September 23!" These are the words of Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple.

The new online store in the town seeks to offer Apple’s full range of products and support directly to customers across India for the first time. "The new online store will provide customers with the same premium experience found in Apple store locations around the world, delivered by online team members who are ready to offer their expertise," a note from Apple's blog says.

The company has said, "In October, customers can expect free online Today at Apple sessions led by local Creative Pros, focused on photography and music. Just in time for the festive season, signature gift wrap and personalized engraving will be available for select products."
