Google has trimmed the Indian price of the Pixel 10, dropping the base 128 GB model to as low as ₹73,999—a reduction of ₹6,000 from the launch price of ₹79,999. The 256 GB “Lemongrass” edition now sits around ₹74,999, and bundled offers can push the effective discount even higher. This move aims to make the Pixel 10 a more compelling choice for price‑sensitive shoppers.
Why Google Reduced the Price
The Indian premium‑smartphone market is fiercely competitive, with Samsung, Apple and OnePlus regularly slashing launch prices. Google’s Pixel 10 relies on AI‑driven photography and the Tensor G3 chip rather than sheer hardware specs, so a lower price helps it compete against devices like the Galaxy S 24 Ultra and the iPhone 15 Pro. By acting quickly, Google signals it’s ready to adjust pricing based on early sales data.
Current Deals Across Retailers
- Flipkart: Base 128 GB model now ₹73,999 (₹6,000 off) and another listing at ₹74,999 (₹5,000 off).
- Reliance Digital: 256 GB, 12 GB RAM “Lemongrass” edition priced at ₹74,999.
- Promotional bundles: Some stores pair the phone with Google accessories or offer exchange credits, pushing the effective discount toward ₹11,000.
Implications for the Indian Market
If the discount holds, the Pixel 10 could attract Android enthusiasts who want a Google‑first experience without paying a premium. A stronger foothold in India would also boost adoption of Google services such as Maps, Assistant and the Pixel AI suite. Competitors may feel pressure to justify higher price tags with either superior hardware or exclusive ecosystem perks.
What Should You Do?
If you’ve been eyeing the Pixel 10, now is a good time to act. The price drop places the phone in the same corridor as other flagship models, while its software experience remains uniquely Google. Keep an eye on bundled offers—exchange credits or accessory packs can lower the effective cost even further. Remember, price wars move fast, so the window may close quickly.
