The newly launched Tata CLiQ is an e-commerce venture by Tata Group, India's biggest business conglomerate, aimed to be a marketplace for in-house and partner companies to sell apparel and electronics.
As part of their inaugural offer, the online retailer is selling Surface Pro 4 at a discount than the official retail price on Amazon, the exclusive retail partner for Surface in India as yet. I've verified with Microsoft folks, and the Tata CLiQ offer is legit.
The store is selling only one variant of Surface Pro 4 – Core i5/4GB RAM/128GB – bundled with a black keyboard for a price of ₹92,480 ($1,380). The same option on Amazon, with the additional keyboard purchase, comes out to be ₹102,480. At Amazon, the Surface Pro 4 range starts from ₹78,890 onwards.
You can also pay in easy monthly installments (EMIs) via partner banks, and the delivery will take about a week.

Grab a discounted Surface Pro 4 bundle in India on Tata CLiQ
Hey, could you guys do a review of the Smartron Tbook? It's core M, but I think it's a great price, ₹40000
Amazon india is selling bundle of SP4 (4 GB,128 GB, i5) with keyboard @Rs10,000 off for last few days now. So it is better than TATA CLiQ's offer which is giving only black keyboard and is not official partner.
For those who comment on its premium price should look at the price of HP spectre360 or lenovo yoga. Both were Rs129,000 last time i checked. For genuine buyers who are not willing to spend this much on this kind of premium devices have an option @Rs 59,000 for SP3.
Still others who want similar thing at cheaper price should wait for lenovo miix surface clone or just grab something like smartron from NDTV gadgets @ Rs42,000.
Further for people who can not tell apple from oranges but want to experience win10 in 2-in-1 form at super cheap price have an option @Rs15,900(+Rs 1,000 for active stylus) in the form of lava twinpad.
If all this does not help then nothing can....
They also have a 950 at a good price..₹29994/-. https://www.tatacliq.com/microsoft-lumia-950-dual-sim-32-gb-white/p-mp00...
As of now, in Microsoft USA site, the price of this model is $849
The Surface pro is a niche product here in India due to its high price. However, there are lots of OEMs to choose from in the 2 in 1 space and Computex should bring some new devices we can look forward to. I particularly liked the Acer Switch V10 and One 10.
No thnx
Taxes are going to play spoil sport for Microsoft given that apple has a good brand recall when it comes to premium laptop
I think it's time we got a surface clone from Indian manufacturers. A reliable one
Good luck getting the likes of iBall and Micromax to make a reliable hinge.
There is. Smartron Tbook.
Oh. I shall have a look!
Sala itna sasta :p
This website looks half baked just like our WM 10.
For real !?!

Crickets.......
Stil very expensive....
So expensive and still only 4 GB RAM?
Its the taxes that add on to that premium price to make it way more expensive !!!
Considering what it is the price is good. Don't compare it to laptop prices.
Consider it as first party tax from Microsoft
Wew.... Still its expensive IMO
Yep it is !!! I think those market focus shift for microsoft warying off from India is because of this reason ! After import duties and taxes it becomes way expensive!! Don't know how surface phone will cost here and compete ! :|
I won't be surprised if they don't launch the Surface Phone here. At least the highest variant of the three.
Yea import duties gonna ruin it in India.
How do Apple iPhones cost almost the same in US n India then??? I think all that import taxes is bullshit now.. We import almost every phone from China..
They don't. The iPhone SE starts at $632 in India.
The iPhone SE 16 GB variant costs $399 in the US whereas it is priced at ₹39999 in India, which is roughly ₹100 per dollar. The current exchange rate is about ₹67-68 per dollar. Don't know what same price are you talking about.
Checked with a friend in US, iPhone 6s costs $650 + 80 taxes. Costs ₹47k on Amazon here... Almost same..Also 5s is 250-280$ there.. Here its ₹20k.. Almost same..Dont know why SE is priced so high here... But my point was, companies do control pricing everywhere.. N microsoft has always got it wrong.. And we are going to suffer even more now, since we are out of focus now..
There was specific news regarding iPhone SE priced higher than normal in India to have that 'premium' feel to it.
There was a report here at WC too. They wanted to balance out the cost, etc.

So doesnt that prove that costs in India are controlled by these companies?? So what makes microsoft price them so high in comparison to US?? Import taxes on electronics have come down over the years, to the point it doesnt make sense to buy electronic stuff from US and miss out on the warranty
After that internal memo about India and brazil...i think we'll be going down the brazil way...no more new lumias or surface devices... At least until windows gains traction ...
I'll probably be married and have kids then... :/
Which internal memo?? Cause i don't see a mention of india or brazil in the one from terry myerson.

The one Daniel posted after that one. Its a few articles later.
Thanks. Found the article. I guess i'll have to ask my friend in NY to bring me the surface phone(If and when it comes out) just like I had to do for the band 2 and surface book.
