7%chance, per Kāla▼ 5 pts since the last update
Why
Base rate: Historically, Economic Times articles on Indian smartphone pricing rarely report sub‑₹10,000 average prices, especially when market trends show rising costs. Latest evidence: Recent reports (e.g., 23 Oct 2026 Economic Times articles) highlight falling shipments and “prices squeeze demand,” indicating that average smartphone prices are staying high, not dropping below ₹10,000.
