Please email Xiaomi Customer Service and check. I have also gone for the same scheme in May 2020 via ICICI Credit Card but the deductions are happening correctly as per the schedule provided.
Including the Interest shown - the amount still adds up to the same value promised - with GST being the extra amount.


EMI Schedule



Deduction in Statement


As can be seen only the additional GST on Interest is what is being added.

Just checked the Mi site - and its now on sale for 21,999 and I guess the prices will increase again soon as we head to the last month before delivery starts. Hope they keep up the time promised!

Yeah have heard about it, only issue during the demo was that after clearing the area, it again creates a lot of mess while disposing of the waste.

What is the best place to get spares for the iRobot Roomba in Bangalore?
I checked online and they seem to show Rs.400/ Shipping Charges (URL). I specifically need Filters for the 900 Series Roomba.

I too saw this email a few minutes back and came here to report and see that you already did. This is a bad move from Mi India

Milagrow Seagull @ 20K: https://milagrowhumantech.com/floor-...753682739.html

They are quite reliable.
For 3 consecutive years, we have used milagrow 2.0 and went through upgrade cycle too. It comes at premium though, when compared to imports. Service charges are usually high for pune, as the service person comes from mumbai.
We tried to upgrade third time, but the their latest model was close to 90k.
So we ended up buying roborock s6.

I saw the email from Xiaomi and cancelled my order too. Went to Amazon and purchased the Euvacs Deebot 950.

Login using your phone number, and find your order. There's a cancel button right there.

The major drawback of such version of robots is the terrible algorithm/way of movement. They keep on re-doing the same route again n again. Along with shorter battery and suction power, these tend to be very less effective. So even though it's looks too good for 15k price, the ones selling at 30k with better algorithm is worth.
My milagrow used to take around 45 mins for one section on ground floor which roborock s6 does in 20-25min. So tonsummarize for these robots , more obstacles will result in much more running time.
Decide based on these factors.
