Redmi 5A will go on sale today in India via Flipkart and Mi.com – though at different times in the date. The Flipkart flash sale starts at 12pm IST, while the Mi.com flash sale starts at 2pm IST. The very popular budget Xiaomi smartphone has been amongst the top selling smartphones across price brackets, both globally and in India, since its launch in China in October last year. The Redmi 5A arrived in India a month later, in November 2017, and if you’d recall, its starting price at that point in time was Rs. 4,999 – a Rs. 1,000 introductory discount that ended in March this year.
