Redmi 5A price in India will start at Rs. 5,999, a move that marks the end of the introductory pricing announced at launch. The new Redmi 5A price is applicable across Mi.com, Flipkart, and the company's offline Mi Home retail stores. To recall, Xiaomi had subsidised the Redmi 5A's starting price to Rs. 4,999 at launch, with the claim of it going back to the regular price after 5 million units are sold. We've reached out to the company for confirmation that it has managed to hit that mark. In January, the company had announced that it had managed to sell 1 million units of the smartphone within a month of launch.

Launched in November last year, the smartphone boasts of an '8-day battery life' and comes with a dedicated microSD card slot.
