The MacBook Air M3 with 8GB RAM/256GB SSD is listed at ₹1,03, 490 on Vijay Sales, which is a ₹11,410 discount from its launch just a few months ago.
ICICI and SBI Bank credit card holders can get the MacBook at a price of ₹93,490 by availing a ₹10,000 instant discount they are eligible. For exchanging old devices, there is an additional ₹5,000 exchange bonus on certain models.
A key highlight of the latest MacBook Air is the performance enhancements it gets, such as a 60% speed boost compared to its predecessor, the M1 version.

Moreover, Apple has used a 52.6-watt hour Lithium Polymer Battery with the MacBook M3, promising 18 hours of battery life. Another upgrade from the earlier generations is support for dual external displays.
