Purchase Apple Products from the Apple Online StoreApple Retail Stores, and many Apple-authorized resellers and wireless service providers.


Buy: Unlocked Sim Free iPhone and open it there itself to see any damage if any. Do not bother anything else if you are buying from Apple Store. (Read the last line of this Post)


I have been buying iPhone from US since 2009 with no hassles so far.


Just for you reference Tech Spec Comparison is given in the pic below (The addition which you see on Indian iPhones will not affect any performance)

CDMA provision in US iPhones will not work in India

Buy only GSM Sim in India.


IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE, iPAD, APPLE TV and HOMEPOD SERVICE.

Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and HomePod to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
