Moreover, the tech giant has recently announced that it has sold devices worth Rs 3,500 crores across all channels during the “Realme Utsav days” that were live from October 2 to October 10. The firm also said that it saw a 1200% increase in sales of the phone in the Rs 20,000- Rs 30,000 segments on the opening day of the festival.

Realme was first introduced as a sub-brand of OPPO in 2018 but was later split into an independent company. Last year, it became the fastest brand to reach 50 million shipments and in less than a year, the brand’s total shipments reached 100 million units, making it the fastest-growing brand ever.

Last month, the company revealed that it has become the fourth-largest smartphone brand in China and also managed to reach the sixth position in the global rankings. Data from Counterpoint Research showed that Realme’s smartphone shipments reached 15 million in the second quarter of this year, representing year-on-year growth of 135.1 percent.
