An Apple Authorized Reseller (AAR) is a business partner that has entered into a contractual relationship with Apple Computer Inc., to sell software and/or hardware products. The Apple website maintains lists of authorized corporate resellers and catalog/Internet resellers.

Apple authorised re-sellers can operate any way they chose in India ... and that also means they are not obliged to service Apple products, even for warranty purposes although many do. I understand that Apple are about to open their own stores in India and in my view you would be wise to await this. We read of many problems with re-sellers and a formal Apple store will uphold warranty and service obligations to the same standards as we have here in the West.
