Oyo Rooms has announced a flash sale for room bookings, with rooms going for Rs. 499 on select hotels till 10pm IST Monday. Users can use the code OYOMIL to avail of the discount, but was not valid for 'pay at hotel' transactions when we tested the code out.

According to the flash sale page, a thousand early birds get bookings at Rs. 99, but it appears to be sold out even though the ticker has yet to cross a thousand users on its homepage at 4:40pm.

Oyo Rooms has not responded to our email and phone requests for comment.
