# Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra price cut by Rs 15,000 in India 2026-08-25T14:56:49+00:00 | Technology | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets Samsung has officially reduced the price of the Galaxy S26 Ultra in India. The new starting price is Rs 1,24,999 for the 12GB + 256GB variant, down Rs 15,000 from the original price. The 12GB + 512GB model has also been reduced. The updated prices are live on Flipkart and the Samsung India online store, gadgets360.com reports. Flipkart is also offering an instant cashback of Rs 4,000 with Flipkart Axis and Flipkart SBI credit cards on the S26 Ultra purchase. Meanwhile, India Today reports that the Galaxy S25 Ultra is available on Flipkart at an effective price of Rs 79,182, down from Rs 1,29,999. That price requires combining a bank discount with an exchange offer, such as trading in a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra for an Rs 11,100 benefit. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The coverage is uniform straight reporting: both outlets simply announce price changes for Samsung flagships. The S26 Ultra cut is a direct reduction, while the S25 Ultra deal depends on exchange and card discounts. Neither outlet critiques the pricing strategy or speculates on sales. A reader should note that the S25 Ultra price is conditional and varies by trade-in device, whereas the S26 Ultra cut is unconditional. The key detail to watch is whether Samsung extends the cashback or exchange offers after the current promotion period ends. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 2 neutral - gadgets360.com (neutral report) Straight announcement of price cut with no editorial framing. - indiatoday.in (neutral report) Factual report on effective price with conditions, no slant.
