Lenovo's new budget 4G-enabled smartphone, the A6000 Plus, will be made available to buy on Tuesday in its second flash sale. Lenovo India has announced that the second flash sale of the A6000 Plus smartphone will have 40,000 units up for sale. The company announced the number of units via a tweet.

Priced at Rs. 7,499, registrations for the Lenovo A6000 Plus's second flash sale via Flipkart on Tuesday began last week, and ended midnight Monday. The flash sale will commence at 2pm IST for registered users via Flipkart.

It's worth noting that Lenovo India in the first flash sale had 100,000 units up for grabs. The Chinese company however seems to have limited the number of units for the second flash sale. In the first flash sale, Lenovo India had claimed that it expects "increased consumer demand" which is why it had a large number of units available for purchase.
