Xiaomi Redmi 6, Redmi 6A, Mi LED TV 4C Pro, 4A Pro and Mi PowerBank 2i Price Hiked in India

By
Xiaomi India on Saturday announced price hikes for two its most affordable smartphones - the Redmi 6 and Redmi 6A as well as select TV and powerbank models. Xiaomi said in a statement on Twitter that the price increase was necessary due to "a significant rise in input cost" thanks to rupee that has "depreciated against the dollar by nearly 15 percent."
The entry-level variant of the Redmi 6 will now retail price at Rs. 8,499, an increase of Rs. 500 as compared to its launch price of Rs. 7,999. As of now, the price of the 3GB RAM/ 64GB storage variant of the Redmi 6 remains unchanged at Rs. 9,499.
Xiaomi Redmi 6A (2GB+16GB) will now retail price at Rs. 6,599, an increase of Rs. 600 from its introductory launch price of Rs. 5,999. Xiaomi said the 2GB RAM and 32GB storage variant of the Redmi 6A will now retail at Rs. 7,499, an increase of Rs. 500.
It's worth pointing out that Xiaomi had indicated at the time of the launch of the Redmi 6A in India in early September that the pricing of the smartphone may be revised upwards in a couple of months if rupee's slide continues, so the move is hardly unexpected. However, the increase in price of other products may come as a bit of surprise to Mi fans.
Two of the recently launched Mi LED TVs have also seen their prices increased. The Mi LED TV 4C Pro 32 will now retail price at Rs. 15,999, an increase of Rs. 1,000 and Mi LED TV 4A Pro 49 will now retail price at Rs. 31,999, an increase of Rs. 2,000.
Finally, the 10000mAh Mi PowerBank 2i continues its up-again, down-again pricing trend with a new price tag of Rs. 899, an increase of Rs. 100.
