Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I combine bank discounts with exchange offers to get even more savings?
A: Yes! Flipkart’s sale structure typically allows stacking multiple offers. You can combine the base discount (like iPhone 16 at ₹54,999), add 10% bank card discount, and still claim exchange value for your old phone. However, read the fine print carefully—some offers have caps or exclusions. For example, if the maximum bank discount is ₹5,000, you won’t get 10% off on high-value phones exceeding that cap. Exchange values depend on your device’s condition, brand, and model. Use Flipkart’s exchange calculator before finalizing to see your exact savings. Maximum discounts often require combining 2-3 offers strategically.
Q: Is buying during the Diwali sale better than waiting for Republic Day or other future sales?
A: Diwali sales typically offer the best smartphone discounts of the year, comparable only to Republic Day sales in January. However, newly launched phones (like iPhone 16 or Pixel 10 Pro Fold) rarely get deeper discounts in subsequent sales within 3-4 months. If you’re targeting a specific recently launched model, Diwali sale prices are likely the best you’ll see until mid-2026. For older models (like Pixel 9 Pro Fold), prices might drop further in January, but stock availability becomes uncertain. Consider your urgency—if you need a phone now or want a specific color/variant, don’t wait. Popular models sell out quickly, and “out of stock” means missing the deal entirely.
