Options for monthly and annual ‌AppleCare‌+ plans in India provide more choice and flexibility, allowing users to keep coverage for as long as they require. Apple's vice president of Worldwide iPhone Product Marketing, Kaiann Drance, said:

AppleCare gives our customers peace of mind knowing that their products are protected and supported by Apple experts. With today's updates in India, we're making it easier and more affordable to get trusted protection, including access to our most complete coverage for iPhone.

‌AppleCare‌+ with Theft and Loss for iPhone allows for up to two incidents of theft or loss every year, along with all of the other benefits of ‌AppleCare‌+, such as battery replacement services, 24/7 priority support, and unlimited repairs for accidental damage. Plans start at INR 799.

Customers can view options for ‌AppleCare‌+ coverage on eligible devices directly from the Settings app, where it begins immediately once initiated.

Very happy to see this in India even though I generally don't purchase AppleCare/protection plan or extended warranty of any sort. Pricing is similar to the US plans. However there is no option to subscribe to monthly plans at the time of device purchase. Don't know whether Apple will allow that in the near future.

Would have liked to see prices for all the devices, however since it can be purchased only within the first 60 days, I am able to see prices for both my 17 Pro Max and my mum's 17. Currently, purchase is not going through when I try to subscribe on my 17 Pro Max. Might be some temporary issue.

Now waiting for AppleCare One to launch in the country.

So even India now gets theft and loss yet Canada still gets squat. Must be 'cause we are nasty canadians.
We will conveniently lose our phones just before the expiry and apologize profusely, of course. 😉
