Apple sees record revenue in India
The Cupertino, US-headquartered Apple recently reported revenue records in over two dozen markets, including India, in the June quarter earnings that topped street expectations, but CEO Tim Cook had called out the "evolving" tariff situation and estimated September-quarter tariff costs at about $1.1 billion.
During Q3 FY2025 earnings, Cook had also spoken of opening new stores in India and the UAE later this year.
Tim Cook had said the company saw iPhone growth in every geographic segment and double-digit growth in emerging markets, including India, the Middle East, South Asia, and Brazil.
"We saw an acceleration of growth around the world in the vast majority of markets we track, including greater China and many emerging markets, and we had June quarter revenue records in more than two dozen countries and regions, including the US, Canada, Latin America, Western Europe, the Middle East, India, and South Asia," Cook said, adding that these results were driven by double-digit growth across iPhone, Mac, and services.
The situation around tariffs is "evolving", he had stated, adding that for the June quarter, the company incurred about $800 million of tariff-related costs.
“For the September quarter, assuming the current global tariff rates, policies, and applications do not change for the balance of the quarter, and no new tariffs are added, we estimate the impact to add about $1.1 billion to our costs. This estimate should not be used to make projections for future quarters, as there are many factors that could change, including tariff rates,” he said.
For the June quarter, the tech giant reported revenue of $94.04 billion, the 10 per cent year-on-year growth topping Wall Street expectations, while net profit came in at $23.42 billion, up 9.2 per cent year-on-year.
