32GB Wi-Fi: $599 USD  27,717

It is not yet launched in India. So it has to be imported from outside India which thus attracts customs duty and shipping prices. Prices vary a whole lot when importing.

  • USB Power Wall Charger for Apple iPhone / iPod / iPad    249
  • Dock Cradle Charger for Apple iPad 16Gb, 32GB & 64GB  989

Given the varying nature of prices and expensive prices, Apple iPad is not worth the money for the Indian users. It also seems that Apple is not interested in Indian market and that could be why they are not launching early in India. So you cannot buy them in Bangalore, Mumbai or other Indian cities directly. It is also speculated that iPad may not find much of a market in India to make profit for Apple's expensive business.

For those looking for iPad, there are better alternatives such as PC tablets or e-readers, netbooks etc. which are much cheaper and available for buying directly in Indian stores without worrying about arrrival shipped products to your doorstep.
