Airtel partners Lenovo to offer smartphones with ₹2,000 cashback

Airtel has added a new smartphone brand for its "Mera Pehla Smartphone" initiative. Select Motorola and Lenovo smartphones will now be available with cashback of ₹2,000 as part of the initiative. These include Moto C, Moto E4, and Lenovo K8 Note.

As part of the offer, Moto C would be available at an effective price of ₹3,999, Moto E4 at ₹6,499 and Lenovo K8 Note at ₹10,999.

Under the initiative, the listed smartphones will come bundled with a special Airtel recharge pack of ₹169 offering 1GB 4G data per day and unlimited local and STD calls.

How the cashback works

Users who purchase Moto C, Moto E4 and Lenovo K8 will receive the cashback of ₹2,000 within a period 36 months. Users will need to make Airtel prepaid recharges amounting to ₹3,500 within 18 months to avail the first cashback installment of ₹500.

For the next 18 months, users will need to make recharges worth ₹3,500 again to claim the remaining ₹1,500 cashback. After the completion of 36 months, users will have received the full cashback amount of ₹3,500.

"We look forward to working with Motorola to bring smartphones within the reach of more and more customers," Vani Venkatesh, Chief Marketing Officer, Bharti Airtel, said in a statement.

"It is a great opportunity for Airtel subscribers to upgrade to 4G and enjoy the meaningful experiences across Motorola & Lenovo smartphones," added Sudhin Mathur, Managing Director, Motorola Mobility India and Lenovo MBG India.
