Electronic items are India's third largest import (after crude oil and gold). The duties are generally around 30%, and generally electronic products, like smartphones, tablets, computers and others, do cost a lot more in India when compared to the U.S. There are some exceptions, like hard drives, that cost almost the same. Maybe it's also a matter of how the manufacturers price things in different markets.
