Eternal expands quick-commerce partnership for iPhone 18

Eternal Limited (NSE: ETERNAL), through Blinkit, has partnered with Apple to offer the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, Apple Watch S12 and AirPods 5 through ultra-fast delivery in cities including Delhi NCR, Mumbai and Bengaluru. The iPhone 18 Pro range starts at ₹1,64,900 for the 256 GB model, with bank discounts and no-cost EMI options available. The development shows Blinkit's expansion beyond groceries into high-value electronics, where speed and convenience can become an additional differentiator. The strong demand for new Apple products also gives quick-commerce platforms an opportunity to capture premium transactions. However, the financial impact on Eternal will depend on sales volumes, margins and whether customers continue using Blinkit for high-value purchases beyond product launches. I will watch the adoption of electronics on Blinkit and whether the category becomes a meaningful contributor to its quick-commerce business. View: Positive. The partnership expands Blinkit's addressable category and strengthens its position in premium quick-commerce, although the near-term earnings impact is yet to be established.
