The thing is, if you’re not a Plus or Black member, you’re already behind. Or nothing. Let’s be real, the best stock—especially for the iPhones—usually vanishes in that first 24-hour early access window. Those too.

The “Republic Sale” Log: Field Notes

It’s an ongoing situation where Flipkart is pitting “early access” against “limited stock” to drive subscriptions.

• The Launch Schedule: The sale officially kicks off on January 17, 2026, for everyone. But the 24-hour head start for Plus and Black members starts at the stroke of midnight on January 16.

• The iPhone 17 Factor: There’s massive chatter about the newer iPhone 17 potentially dropping to around ₹74,999 for the first time. The thing is, the iPhone 16 is expected to be the real volume driver, likely hitting a sweet spot around ₹52,000 to ₹54,000 after bank offers.

• The Samsung S25 Early Bird: With the Galaxy S26 launch rumored for February, the current S25 and S24 Ultra are expected to see deep cuts. We’re hearing whispers of the S25 Plus landing near ₹72,199 with bank deals.

• Bank Loot: HDFC Bank is the primary partner this time with a 10% instant discount. But keep an eye on Axis and IDFC First—some categories are teasing up to 15% off.

• The 10-Minute Delivery: Flipkart is reportedly expanding its “Minutes“ service specifically for this sale. You might be able to get that new pair of TWS earbuds or a smartphone delivered faster than you can finish a cup of chai in select pin codes.

And Here’s the Kicker…

Flipkart is doubling down on its “Black” membership perks. Word on the street is that Black members might get a full year of YouTube Premium or extra “SuperCoin” multipliers during this sale. The thing is, they’re also introducing “Jackpot Deals” that refresh every 8 hours. And then there are the “Pre-sale Passes”—pay ₹100 now to lock in a ₹1,000 discount later.

It’s an ongoing situation with a live teaser page on the app already. If you’ve been eyeing a new 4K TV or an M3 MacBook, now is the time to dump them into your wishlist so the AI can start “personalizing” your coupons.
