Apple is launching a new retail store location in India, with Apple Koregaon Park set to open on Thursday, September 4 at 1:00 p.m. local time.

Apple Koregaon Park is located in Pune, in the state of Maharashtra. Apple already has two retail store locations that are operational in India, including one in Mumbai and one in New Delhi.

Earlier this week, Apple announced a third store located in Bengaluru, which will open two days before Apple Koregaon Park. Apple Koregaon Park will be Apple's fourth retail store in India when it opens.

"Namaskar, Pune," reads Apple's store announcement for the location. "The first Apple Store in the city opens its doors soon. We can't wait to see your vibrant ideas come to life at Apple Koregaon Park."

Apple is using the same peacock-feathered Apple logo for Apple Koregaon Park that it is using for the Hebbal store in Bengaluru, with a wallpaper available from Apple's website.

Apple launched its first two stores in India back in 2023, after launching the online store in the country in 2020.

Rather interesting that Pune (Poona for us purists) is where Apple’s going next. Unlike the other three locations, Pune is a tier two city, although one where there’s a lot of tech and colleges.

Apart from Tier-2 Car driving style of it’s residents, Pune is now a Tier-1 city.

Literally no purist will ever call it Poona. Pune is what purists and locals call it. Absurd that you would claim so. From a proud Punekar.

India was a very special place for Steve Jobs that shaped various aspects of him. Jobs traveled to India in 1974. In 1976, Jobs would go on to co-found Apple with Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne.

This is great news for India and for Pune! Now people won't have to drive 3 hours to Mumbai to go to an Apple Store.
 
I wish we could filter out Apple Store opening and closing news from the feed. Maybe I'm alone in this, but this is the news I care about the least here. News about specific stores are so regional, that I don't know why they are reported here. Massive trends in stores, such as "Apple closes 50% of stores" or something would be newsworthy here. A store opening up next to an Arby's in some mall far less so--that is news that is only relevant to the people directly next to the store, and the audience here is all over the world.

Because there’s a lot more of these news stories recently. It’s annoying to keep scrolling past the daily update on store opening, closings, and renovations. It’s hardly a “Macrumor,” not really tech, but real estate news.

Only Macaulay’s children call it Poona just because the British couldn’t pronounce Pune. It was and will always be Pune. (pronounced as “Pu-nay”)
