Xiaomi, ahead of its first flash sale for the Redmi Note in India, has revealed the number of units (50,000) of the smartphone that will be available for purchase to registered consumers from exclusive online retail partner Flipkart on Tuesday.

The Chinese smartphone manufacturer, also known as China's Apple, had revealed the number of units set for sale via a Mi India Facebook post on Friday. The firm had last week also announced that the first 5,000 Flipkart First consumers who register for Tuesday's will get the Xiaomi Redmi Note added to their carts on Monday.

Wondering if you are one of these first Flipkart First subscribers? Flipkart says "subscribers who get Early Access on the Redmi Note will get an email from Flipkart to confirm their Early Access by 30th November."

Registration for Tuesday's flash sale is open till Monday midnight.

Priced at Rs. 8,999, the Redmi Note features dual-SIM support with dual standby, and runs Android 4.2.2 with Xiaomi's MIUI v5 skin on top. Powered by a 1.7GHz octa-core MediaTek MTK6592 SoC, it is coupled with a Mali-450MP4 GPU and 2GB of RAM.
