Priced at Rs. 6,999, registrations for the Micromax's Yu Yuphoria first flash sale via Amazon began May 12, and ended Monday. The company as of now has not revealed the number of Yuphoria units that will be up for grabs in the first sale day via the company's exclusive online partner. Yu on Wednesday however had confirmed that it received over 500,000 registrations for the first sale of the Yuphoria smartphone. Micromax's pricing for the Yuphoria significantly makes it a direct competitor to Xiaomi's Redmi 2 - which also sells at Rs. 6,999.

Yu Televentures, a subsidiary of Micromax, launched the successor to the Yureka smartphone earlier this month. The Yu Yuphoria features a 5-inch HD (720x1280 pixels) TFT IPS display and sports third-generation Corning Gorilla Glass for protection.
