Google Pixel 4a was launched in India. The new development comes two months after Google brought the Pixel 4a to global markets with a price tag of $ 349 (roughly Rs 25,500). In addition to announcing the launch, the price of the Pixel 4a in India has also been revealed. Google has also announced the sale date of the new Pixel phone in the country. The smartphone is the successor to the Pixel 3a and includes features like a hole-punch display and a square-shaped camera module on the back that make it look similar to the Pixel 4 that didn’t make it to the Indian market.
Google Pixel 4a Price in India, Availability Details
The Google Pixel 4a price in India has been set at Rs. 31,999 for the single 6GB + 128GB storage variant; However, for a limited period, the company will offer the phone at a promotional price of Rs. 29,999. To give a bit of perspective, Google had launched the Pixel 3a in the country with a price tag of Rs. 39,999, although the phone was often available at Rs. 29,999 during online sales. The India price of the Pixel 4a is similar to the US price if we factor in sales tax in various US states.
On the availability part, Google has revealed that the Pixel 4a will go on sale in India via Flipkart from October 16. This is the date when the online market will also start its Big Billion Days sale for regular customers in the country.
Last week, Google announced that the Pixel 4a would go on sale in the country on October 17. There is, therefore, a slight change from its original sale date.
