Redmi 9A or Redmi 9C may be headed to India as Redmi 9. Xiaomi India boss Manu Kumar Jain on Wednesday teased a new product carrying 9 in its moniker. While Jain didn't reveal the actual product, the phone could be Xiaomi Redmi 9A or Redmi 9C under the Redmi 9 branding, given the Chinese smartphone maker has already launched Redmi 9 as Redmi 9 Prime in India. To recall, Redmi 9A and Redmi 9C were originally launched in Malaysia back in June.

In a tweet on Wednesday, Xiaomi's Jain teased the arrival of Redmi 9C as Redmi 9 in the country.

There is no launch date at this point; however, the phone is likely to debut next month, probably in the first week of September.

Redmi 9A carries a price tag of MYR 359 (roughly Rs. 6,300) for the 2GB + 32GB storage variant in Malaysia. It is offered in Midnight Grey, Peacock Green, and Twilight Blue colour options. The India pricing of the phone is likely to be similar or slightly more as Xiaomi is quite possibly going to increase the amount of RAM and storage in the phone before its India debut. On the other hand, Redmi 9C is priced starting at MYR 429 (roughly Rs. 7,500) for the 2GB + 32GB storage model in Malaysia. It is sold in Midnight Grey, Sunrise Orange, and Twilight Blue colour options.
