According to reports, after a long wait, Apple's first retail store will start operating in India from the Ambanis-owned mall in Mumbai. For the same, Apple has gone under an 11-year deal with the Ambanis for a space of around 20,800 square feet. The minimum monthly rent of the store area is about Rs. 42 lakhs. Afterwards, the rent would increase by 15 per cent every three years. Alongside this, Apple would also have to pay a 2 per cent revenue share contribution for the first three years and a 2.5 per cent after the first three years.

However, Apple's 11-year deal with the Ambani-owned mall in Mumbai has a strict barricade against all its rivals. The tech giant has leased an ‘exclusive zone’ in the mall, which would bar 22 competing brands, including Facebook, LG, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Sony, and others, from occupying space or displaying any advertisement. In addition, the licensor would not be allowed to grant any licenses, sublicenses, leases, subleases or any other agreements to the brand's rivals.
We are excited to see more glimpses from Apple's store launch at the Reliance Jio World Drive mall. What about you? Let us know!
