The newest iPhone 18 Pro Max price tag can make your bank balance wither away. Croma, however, is offering a few launch benefits that could bring the cost down considerably. The retailer has announced launch offers on the iPhone 18 Pro Max in India. The iPhone 18 Pro Max price cut is via various offers for the 256GB model and the effective amount you pay is Rs 139900. The actual iPhone 18 Pro Max price is Rs 179900 before any offers are applied. The catch is that this is not a straight discount on the iPhone. The effective price comes from a combination of different offers and benefits. Here is how to buy the iPhone 18 Pro Max for Rs 139900. Check out the math.
The iPhone 18 Pro Max price cut applies after combining eligible benefits, including bank cashback and exchange-related savings. Think of it as a three-piece puzzle.
First comes the bank cashback, which goes up to Rs 7,000 on select credit cards. Then there's the exchange. Hand over an old iPhone 14 128GB and you can get up to Rs 24,000, depending on its condition and model. On top of that sits an exchange bonus of up to Rs 12,000.

Notice how often "up to" appears here. Buyers upgrading from an eligible older iPhone can combine the exchange value and bonus with the applicable bank offer, but everything is subject to the terms of the promotion. Your phone's condition as well as its age will decide how close you get to the headline figure.
The iPhone 18 Pro Max exchange programme is not limited to older handsets. Croma has extended it to newer models, too. If you're carrying an iPhone 15, iPhone 16 or iPhone 17, the exchange value can cross Rs 30000, again depending on your device's condition.

The offers run across Croma stores, Croma.com, the Tata Neu app and BigBasket, subject to availability and applicable terms. One more caveat: Croma says prices and offers can vary depending on the model, store, city, and availability, and they're valid only while the offer lasts.
Before you swipe, check your old phone's exchange value, confirm your card qualifies, and do the math once more. A deal is only a deal when the numbers add up at the billing counter. So, check the effective iPhone 18 Pro Max price before paying up.
