Croma is offering a big discount on Apple’s newest iPhone 17, bringing the price down to less than ₹50,000. The iPhone 16e and 17e don’t have a backup camera or a current display, so the iPhone 17 may be the least expensive iPhone out there right now. It has almost all of the top features that make it a pricey device, just like its Pro brothers.
How do I get an iPhone 17 for ₹44,768?
It costs ₹82,900 to buy the base model of the iPhone 17 with 256GB of storage on the online store. Croma is also giving away a 2% ticket deal worth ₹1,658. Your old device is worth up to ₹23,500, and you can get a trade bonus of up to ₹8,000. The company is also giving up to ₹4,974 in TATA Neu coins as a bonus. This brings the real price of the Apple flagship down to ₹44,768.
Details about the iPhone 17
The iPhone 17 is the one that came out in September of last year and has a 120Hz refresh rate. The phone has a 6.3 inch OLED Super Retina XDR screen with ProMotion technology and a maximum brightness of 3,000 nits. Apple’s newest security, Ceramic Shield 2, is on the phone. Apple says it is 3 times less likely to scratch and better at blocking reflections than its predecessor.
The phone has an Apple A19 CPU with a 3nm process, a GPU with 5 cores, and a Neural Engine with 16 cores. On top of that, the phone can run all of Apple’s Intelligence features that are available on iOS 26 right now, as well as some that will be added with iOS 27 this year.
Apple doubled the storage on the base model from 128GB to 256GB. If you’re still interested, the Cupertino based tech giant also has a 512GB model.
A 48MP wide angle camera with OIS and 2x zoom support is on the front of the phone. There is also a 48MP ultra wide angle camera that can be used for macro photos. There is an 18MP selfie camera with a focus on the front of the phone. The phone also has an Action Button that can be changed to do things like silence it, turn on the camera or flashlight, recognize music, make voice notes, and more. You can also change the brightness, depth, zoom, styles, and tones while taking shots with the new Camera Control button.

This is how the price goes down
Several deals must be put together to bring the price down to ₹44,768
- Your old phone could be worth up to ₹23,500.
- More money to exchange, up to ₹8,000
- About ₹1,658 off with a coupon
- Tata Neu Coins can earn you up to ₹4,974
- Up to ₹2,000 in cash back from the bank
When you add all of that up, the price falls below ₹45,000. The price goes up quickly if you miss a few of these.
Croma is having an Apple focused sale again, but this time it will happen in stages over the months of April, May, and June. The first stage will run from April 3 to April 19.
What you really need to be eligible
This is where things become less exciting.
- For trade, you need a smartphone that is pretty valuable.
- The final price will depend on how good or bad your gadget is.
- Not all Neu Coins users will be able to get the most out of them.
- Bank deals depend on which cards are available.
It’s possible for the price to drop below ₹50,000 without the full stack, which is still high for an iPhone that’s not very old.

Why should you care?
This is one of the best deals on an iPhone right now if you already have a high value phone to trade in and can get the right deal. The top price is more of a best case situation than a sure thing if that doesn’t happen.
The lesson is easy to understand either way. The iPhone 17 isn’t really that “cheap.” If you are ready to play the whole deal game, it becomes surprisingly cheap.
In India, buying a new iPhone usually follows a set plan. You wait for a holiday sale, get some cash back, and maybe trade in your old phone. Then you’re done for the day. A deal does come up every once in a while, though, that changes the math.
This Everything Apple Sale from Croma is meant to do that. The store is having an Apple focused sale again, but this time it will happen in stages over the months of April, May, and June. The first stage will run from April 3 to April 19.
