It seems that the Indian smartphone industry is going through a phase of rapid price cuts where many prominent brands are slashing the prices of their phones. Following the price cut of two HMD Global phones, the Nokia 6.1 Plus and the Nokia 7.1, now the Nokia 3.1 Plus is in line for a price slash. To recall, the Nokia 3.1 Plus was launched in the market with the go-to price-tag of Rs 11,499, and now the phone seems to be getting a price cut of around Rs 1,500. When HMD Global introduced the phone, many people had thought that the Nokia 5.1 Plus offered a much better bang for the buck given that it was retailing for Rs 10,999. That is the reason why HMD Global has slashed the price of the Nokia 3.1 Plus, and now it retails with a new price tag of Rs 9,999.

There is no doubt that the new pricing for the Nokia 3.1 Plus makes much more sense. Nokia PowerUser spotted the new pricing of the device in retail stores. However, the new price tag of Rs 9,999 has not yet been updated on HMD’s online store. Whereas, Amazon and Flipkart both have updated their listings of the Nokia 3.1 Plus to reflect the new pricing. It is also worth noting that now the users who want to buy an Android One device under the Rs 10,000 price tag can consider the Nokia 3.1 Plus as an option.
