iPhone maker Apple has set an all-time revenue record in India and observed a double-digit growth in iPad sales in the country in the September quarter, senior officials of the company said on Friday.

The company reported an over 6 per cent growth in total net sales to USD 94.93 billion during the reported period from USD 89.49 billion a year ago.

“We also set September quarter segment revenue records in the Americas, Europe and the rest of Asia Pacific, as well as in a large number of countries, including the United States, Brazil, Mexico, France, the UK, Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, and we continue to be excited by the enthusiasm we’re seeing in India, where we set an all-time revenue record,” Apple CEO Tim Cook said during the company’s earnings call.

“We can’t wait to bring four new stores to customers in India,” he said.

In early October, Apple announced plans to open four more stores in India, located in Pune, Bengaluru, Delhi-NCR and Mumbai.

According to a Counterpoint Research report, Apple iPhone sales accounted for 21.6 per cent of market share in value terms in the September quarter in India. It trailed behind Samsung by a small margin.

Apple’s revenue from sales of products grew by 4.12 per cent during the reported quarter to USD 69.95 billion from USD 67.18 billion in the September 2023 quarter with iPhone sales growing by about 5.5 per cent to USD 46.22 billion from USD 43.8 billion on a year-on-year (YoY) basis.

The services sales grew faster than product sales at around 12 per cent on a YoY basis and reached an all-time high at USD 24.97 billion during the quarter from USD 22.31 billion in the September 2023 quarter.

The iPad sales of the company grew by about 8 per cent to USD 6.95 billion.
