Big Deals on Smartphones (Expected)

Electronics are likely to dominate the sales, with smartphones leading the charge. The Samsung Galaxy S25, Google Pixel 10, and Samsung Galaxy S24 are expected to see price cuts. The iPhone 16 could also reach its lowest price in India, especially with the recent iPhone 17 series launch. Early leaks suggest that the iPhone 16, originally priced at Rs. 79,900, may drop to around Rs. 51,999 during the Flipkart Big Billion Days sale. Similarly, the iPhone 15 could sell for Rs. 44,999, and the iPhone 14 might hover near Rs. 40,000, depending on ongoing bank offers and discounts. These prices, however, remain speculative and are yet to be officially confirmed.
