  "summary": "<report>Higher prices are just making iPhones more desirable in India</report>\nAnalysts have long predicted that Apple's decision to raise iPhone prices would negatively impact its bottom line in India. However, a new CNBC report suggests that this may not be the case. In fact, the iPhone 18 Pro is reportedly seeing almost 20% more demand in the country compared to the iPhone 17 Pro. This surge in demand has led to Apple's volume market share reaching 10% in 2026, marking the first time the company has reached double digits in a single calendar year. This growth is attributed to the availability of installment plans, which have made the higher-priced iPhones more accessible to Indian consumers.",
