When we scale up the sales, it can be priced in the range of Rs 2,500-3,000,” a company official said on the condition of anonymity. An email query sent to Reliance Jio did not elicit any response. At present, 5G smartphones are available in India in the price range starting from Rs 27,000. The government is yet to heed to the request of Reliance Jio.
