- Earliest sale: Lava, which is live now. Amazon and OnePlus start on 8 October, and Flipkart on 9 October with early access on the 8th.
TechMitra Point: the headline discount is not what you pay. Most of these “effective prices” need a specific bank card, and some also need an exchange or a coupon. Add up what applies to you, and compare the final cart amount on both Amazon and Flipkart before you pay.
Tips before you buy
- Check which card the sale needs. Amazon offers are tied to SBI cards. Flipkart offers are mostly tied to Axis and ICICI cards. A different card gets no bank discount.
- Confirm the day. Some Lava deals, such as the Virat Curve and Bold N4 Pro, cost more from Day 2.
- Check the exchange. Some of the lowest prices include an exchange bonus, so your old phone’s condition matters.
- Compare the cart price, not the headline. Stock and prices can change during the sale, and teased prices can differ from final prices.
- Check the delivery and return rules for big items. Read our Amazon and Flipkart return policy and doorstep checks guide before you order.
