How you can save around ₹26000 on a new MacBook M4 Air/Pro .

So, you set your mind on buying a new MacBook which means you may have already gone through lots of ways to get a discount or you are beginning your search from this blog. In any case what I’m about to say might be useful.

There are few catches to get this discount so I’m not going to make you read through this whole blog to get there and waste your time. So, here are the catches,

1. You should have a valid student ID from any university or college and your ID must be valid for atleast 1 more year from the date of your purchase. For example, if you are getting your Mac on Dec 2025, your ID must be valid till Dec 2026. This ID must not necessarily have to be yours, it can be your family member’s or friend’s whoever is willing to lend you their card.
2. You should have a credit card from ICICI, SBI, IDFC, Axis and few more banks which you can check at the time of your purchase. Also, this card can also be your friend’s or family member’s.

So, now that we have seen the catches. I’ll explain how it works. Apple offers this student education program which allows students to get their MacBook on a discounted value, the discount usually ranges between 8% to 13%. This discount will be higher during the festival times so I’d suggest you get your mac during festive season.

NOTE: If you avail student discount from other’s ID, you should know that the name, address and signature on the bill will be that person’s but you can provide your Email and Phone so that you will receive the update if there is any and for future purposes.

Now there will always be some bank offers when you purchase electronics or any other products nowadays. The bank credit cards which I mentioned above provides lots of cash back and other offers. At any given point of time there will be some sorts of offers going around Apple products be it their official site or any online merchants like Flipkart or Amazon, we just have to find the right time to get it at the lowest price possible.

This is how I got my MacBook air M4 with 16 GB RAM and 512 GB storage for ₹94,313, the actual price of this is ₹1,19,900 I saved ₹25,587. This is a huge offer for me, there may be other offers which would’ve saved me some more money but around the time I purchased this is the best price. These were the discounts available at the time of my purchase

1. 13% student discount (I used the ID of a friend of friends)— this saved me ₹15,587
2. ICICI bank credit card offer of instant cash back for ₹10,000 (also a friend of friends card) — this obviously saved me ₹10,000.

These offers you can apply on any MacBook of your choice and variant. By the way, I got my Mac on a store instead of Online Since both of them pretty much offered the same and with on store purchase I explored all the options while purchasing and got my hands on the new Mac immediately. You can first check the offers provided by your nearest Apple approved stores and then compare it with online platforms, then choose wisely!
