The free data benefit will be over and above the plan benefits, it said. "We are delighted to roll out this exciting data offer for our users to allow them to get the most out of the amazing iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus," Bharti Airtel Director Operations (India and South Asia) Ajai Puri said. The latest edition of the iPhone has been launched in India today across multiple platforms like Apple resellers, Flipkart, Snapdeal and Tata Cliq. Most of these companies are bundling in offers to woo customers in the world's second largest telephony market. While Snapdeal has teamed up with American Express to offer the latter's card members a discount of Rs 10,000 on the purchase of the device. Flipkart also said it has prepared itself to make deliveries to customers from 1900 hrs onwards today. 

The handsets come video recording. The iPhone 7 Plus has dual 12MP rear cameras -- one wide-angle with IP67 rating, signifying the fact that it is water and dust resistant, a first for the Apple smartphone. The Cupertino-based company is betting big on the Indian market. In July, Apple CEO Tim Cook had said that India is one of its fastest growing markets.
