Apple iPhone X 64GB is available on Paytm Mall for Rs 92,781.

Paytm's Freedom Cashback Sale is offering Rs 10,000 cashback on the purchase of the iPhone X 64GB by using promo code "A10K." Now the value of the said iPhone X is Rs 82,781.

The next step is to have an ICICI Bank credit card to make the purchase, which will fetch you an additional 10 percent cashback – that's Rs 1,250 as per the cap. That brings the value of the phone down to Rs 81,531.

After availing all the cashback offers, things get a little tricky. To further down the value of iPhone X, buyers must be willing to trade in their existing smartphone. Paytm is offering up to Rs 14,250 discount on exchanging an old smartphone for the new iPhone X.

But the real catch here is that not all smartphones will fetch you that value. For instance, if you are trading in your old iPhone 7, then you can get Rs 14,250 off on the purchase, which will bring down the total cost of the iPhone X to Rs 67,285.

Different smartphone models will fetch you different discounts. It depends on the make and model of the smartphone you are willing to trade in.
