While I agree with your general sentiment, your particular statement about Apple services in India wrt staingate is incorrect. I got the same problem with my 2015 MBP screen and got it replaced for "free" (had to pay Rs. 2500 service charges) in Mumbai. My speakers got busted[1] too after 4 years but so did my previous laptop's (Dell XPS 13 - 2011). While neither is acceptable, my point is that it is not unique to Apple.
However, I agree that Apple services are crap in India where they'll charge you Rs.2500 for even telling you what is wrong with your laptop and then maybe ask you to get the motherboard replaced for a minor repairable problem.
[1] It is fairly easy to repair them by using rubber cement but don't expect the original audio quality.
