\"\"KOLKATA: Apple<\/a> is shipping 50,000-55,000 units of its new iPhones to India in the first phase to ensure there is adequate supplies for Thursday midnight's launch, despite a simultaneous launch in China and huge global demand, two of its top trade partners said.
\n
\nAccording to them, the first lot of shipment will be sufficient to meet the demand till the weekend with record pre-booking demand in excess of 21,000 units as of Tuesday across exclusive stores, large chains, online retailers and mom-and-pop stores.
\n
\n\"The fear of shortage in inventory is much less now since there will be sufficient inventory to last till the weekend and Apple has fresh stocks that will hit the shelves by early next week,\" said one of the trade partners.
\n
\n\"Of course, certain models may sell faster and get stock out such as the gold colour or 128 GB unit which have the maximum demand in prebookings,\" the person added.
\n
\nAn email sent to Apple did not elicit any response as of Wednesday press time.
\n
Apple's local distributors and India team has been lobbying with the Cupertino-based parent to launch the
iPhone<\/a> 6 and iPhone 6 Plus in India ahead of Diwali and make the most of the festival demand. Rival Samsung's top model Galaxy Note 4 too will hit the market on Friday.
\n
\nHimanshu Chakrawarti, CEO at India's largest cellphone retailer The MobileStore, said the new iPhones have generated unprecedented enthusiasm in the country and more than half the customers who have pre-booked the smartphone have already made the full payment. He, however, refused to share further details.
\n
\nThe initial supply is much better than last year's high-voltage iPhone 5s and 5c launch when only about 20,000 units had hit the Indian market in the first phase, thereby creating huge supply crunch, particularly for the premium iPhone 5s.
\n
\nYet, Apple's India launch of iPhone 6 and 6 Plus pales in front of China where, according to media reports, more than 20 million new iPhones have been pre-ordered. This can potentially help China surpass the US as the largest market for Apple.
\n
According to
Ingram Micro<\/a>, one of Apple's main distributors, the new iPhones will be sold in 1,200 retail locations across India.
\n
\nAll top retailers and Apple stores will launch the new iPhones in India on Thursday midnight and offer it only to the pre-booked customers, while regular sales will start from Friday morning.
\n
\nSamsung too will launch its biggest bet yet, the Galaxy Note 4, on Friday, taking the new iPhone head on. While Samsung has already booked huge media space and prime billboards for its campaign for Note 4, Apple has informed its trade partners that it will go slow on advertising initially.
