What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Lava announced a price revision across its smartphone portfolio, effective November 15, 2026. The company stated that device prices will increase by up to ₹3,000, attributing the adjustment to persistent constraints in global memory supply. This change reflects rising hardware input expenses within the semiconductor and component supply chain.
