Samsung Raises Prices on Multiple Galaxy Phones and Tab A11 in India

Leaked retail memos show repeated small phone hikes now extend to tablets, a move that reflects rising memory chip costs and risks straining price‑sensitive buyers.

Overview

Images of internal Samsung India communications shared on X show seven Galaxy phone models had prices increased by INR 1,000 across listed storage and configuration variants, with the changes recorded as effective July 4, 2026.
A separate internal document, also posted on X, lists price rises for all four Galaxy Tab A11 variants effective July 7, 2026, with increases from INR 2,000 to INR 5,000 and the base 4GB+64GB Wi‑Fi model jumping from INR 15,999 to INR 20,999 (about 31%).
All published reports rely on the leaked images and SamMobile’s summaries rather than a formal public statement from Samsung, and the company has not publicly confirmed or explained the pricing changes.
The repeated INR 1,000 phone bumps have an outsized effect in India’s budget and mid tiers because small nominal increases add up after multiple rounds and raise the entry price for low‑cost models.
Coverage frames the moves as tied to rising memory chip prices, and the broader effect could push rivals and retailers to adjust prices or promotions and reduce options for very price‑sensitive consumers.
