Will a contract version of iphone 5s work in india?

I'm planning to buy an i phone 5s. My relatives stay in USA and they are coming after 2 weeks, so i thought to ask them for an i phone 5s. Its costing them for 199$ with 2 year AT&T contract. If they give it to me will they face any problem by AT&T. When they hand me the mobile i would get it factory unlocked.

Added (1). I can't ask for factory unlocked version because its around 649$ which is costly

No. But reliance is planning

Yes sure will a contract version of iphone 5s work in india

It will work without any issues. Only 4G might not work which is being provided by Airtel at the moment since it does not include LTE band 10. You will be able to use 3G flawlessly
