Aircel is First to Launch iPhone 4 in India, May 27

Bharti Airtel previously took the lead by claiming that it is going to offer Apple’s iPhone 4 in a couple of months time. No exact date was released from Bharti Airtel’s end. But today, Aircel hits back with a real offer, announcing that it will offer the iPhone 4 on May 27 in India.

Nasdaq reported that Aircel will charge INR34,500 ($763) for iPhones with 16 gigabyte capacity and INR40,900 ($905) for those with 32 gigabyte capacity.

Aircel’s iPhone users will be able to recover the cost in monthly credits in their subscription accounts over 24 months, according to Aircel’s website. The full pricing plan as below (in INR, 1 Indian rupee = 0.0221 U.S. dollars):
