And all banks in India gives Rupay credit and debit cards at lower fees compared to Visa.
Its a bummer Apple is not accepting Rupay card.
You have it wrong. Apple does not make the decision of what to accept. The bank/card makes the decision as to whether or not to work with Apple to allow their product to be used. Call Rupay and ask them to work with Apple. If enough people call and complain, it may motivate them.

Unfortunately not all banks' credit cards work with Apple. The best thing to do is to contact your bank and check with them. Apple cannot do anything unless the bank is willing to work with them.
