Check the deal before you buy

Is the discount real, and what will you pay after the bank offer?

Is this discount real?

Compare the sale price with the MRP and with what the item usually sells for. The usual price is the one that matters.

From a price tracker or last month

A small real saving

Off the MRP
60% (₹3,000.00)
Off the usual price
9.1% (₹200.00)

The MRP cut looks far bigger than the real saving. That is a common sign of an inflated MRP.
