Micromax's subsidiary YU Televentures Ltd is geared up for the Yureka flash sale on 26 February.

The company's official e-commerce site Amazon India will host the flash sale on Thursday at 2:00pm. The good news is that there will 30,000 units up for grabs, which is double to last week's flash sale. 

Though the number is the biggest compared to previous flash sales, we believe all units will get sold out in seconds, considering that there will be a minimum of 1 lakh registered users vying to buy.

Micromax has to scale up the production line to bridge the demand-supply gap or else buyers will go for alternative brands in India.
