The new iPads – iPad Air (in pic above) and iPad mini with Retina Display – are going to launch in India on the December 7. As per one of Apple’s retail partners in India, Ingram Micro, the iPad Air’s price will start from Rs 35,900 for the base model (16 GB WiFi), and the iPad mini Retina will start from Rs 28,900 for its basic model.

While the iPad Air may cost up to Rs 67,000 for its 128 GB WiFi + cellular model, the iPad mini Retina is expected to notch around Rs 60,000.

Apple’s iPad mini (original) will is still available for its starting price of Rs 21,900, and the iPad 2 for Rs 28,900. Previously, Apple launched the iPhone 5C and iPhone 5S in India, but this time there doesn’t seem to be too much of a difference between the official prices in the US and India.
