The business has not specified any requirements for the battery replacement, so anybody who notices their phone's battery depleting rapidly or taking a long time to charge can go to their local service centre and request a battery replacement. The Rs 499 battery pricing is most likely for the cheap Redmi A phone series.

And, if you have the Redmi Note 10 or even the Note 11+ models, the battery for these new models may be substantially more expensive, which you can confirm at the service centre before having it changed. Xiaomi has developed a simple method for booking appointments for battery replacements at service centres.

You may book using the Xiaomi Service+ app, and it appears that the policy applies to any old Xiaomi or Redmi phone with an outdated battery. Xiaomi has not requested any documentation to prove the device's authenticity, however we recommend that you bring a soft or hard copy of the phone's purchase receipt for a smooth transaction at the repair centre.

This initiative guarantees that consumers with out-of-warranty phones may still rely on official help for things like replacing the battery. This manner, you may be more confident that the part will be safe to use on the device.
