As the company’s announcement shows, there’s no word yet on when the phone will finally be available to buy in the country. Redmi blamed the lockdowns in multiple states across India for the delays.
The one bit of silver lining? The Redmi Note 9 Pro’s second sale is proceeding as planned, and the phone will be available at 12 PM IST for purchase on the company’s Indian website as well as on Amazon starting at ₹12,999.
