Apple Recent launches - a few questions

[tr27]

Apple has launched a few really decently priced products - MacBook Air 2025 and Mac Mini M4 base.
I see all this talk about the student discount, people say they dont check much in the us , what about here in India?
Would like to make this purchase at Apple Saket , New Delhi, instore.
Also see people writing this as business expense, How to go about this?

Strictly for work and productivity, i don't think there's anything new that will beat this quality and value for money..
anyone else getting these? or anything else that should help people looking to purchase these?

If you have an ICICI or Amex or Axis card, you don't need student discount. You get 10K off along with No cost EMI (which you don't get with student discount).

Any offers for those not using credit cards only debit cards? Wouldn't want to go for the emi thing though.

I was thinking about going for the base mac mini 16gb - 256 and then slowly upgrading the onboard ssd to an aftermarket 2tb variant after the warranty expires. Or is apple care a must? Any changes in the hardware would obviously void the warranty.

will the icici "amazon" pay credit card get the discount? dont really need the emi
like @sporkydork , i would prefer my debit card.. or maybe its time to apply for a credit card

Edit: with Education discount, the mac mini is around 49.9k , which is cheaper than the card discounts

AmazonPay ICICI works for the discount even if you don't want the EMI.

Haven't tried out apple, but samsung doesn't check much, someone I know purchased a samsung device on my student id, they just asked for a govt id proof and student id, both digital, didn't even ask for the physical documents, moreover I didn't even visit the store myself.. Just sent the images over whatsapp and they gave the discount.. So I guess apple being a direct competitor may be doing a similar process..
