vivo X500 Series India Box Prices Leak: From ₹1,69,999 MRP

The box prices (MRP) of the vivo X500 series in India have leaked ahead of the 26 November 2026 launch. Tipster Sanju Choudhary says the 12 GB + 256 GB models carry MRPs of ₹1,69,999 for the X500, ₹1,99,999 for the X500 Pro and ₹2,14,999 for the X500 Pro Max. Box MRPs are usually higher than the actual selling price.

The leaked box prices

Sanju Choudhary posted the figures on X on 13 November, with photos of the price labels:

The labels in the photos are partly blurred, but two model numbers are readable: V2621 next to ₹1,99,999 and V2610 next to ₹2,14,999. Those match the model numbers our database lists for the X500 Pro (V2621) and X500 Pro Max (V2610), which makes the leak more believable. The labels also name vivo Mobile India, list India as the country of origin and show manufacturing dates of October and November 2026.

Box price is not the selling price

The MRP printed on the box is the maximum legal retail price. Brands often launch phones well below it. The tipster says the X500 Pro's box MRP matches the vivo X300 Ultra's, and our database lists the X300 Ultra at ₹1,59,999, about ₹40,000 below that MRP. We would not assume vivo uses the same gap this time, but it shows how far apart the two numbers can be.

An earlier leak, which we covered on 10 November, put the X500's actual launch price at ₹1,19,999. That would be ₹50,000 below this box MRP. Both figures are leaks, so the real prices will only be clear on launch day.

A big jump from the X300 series

For comparison, our database lists the vivo X300 Pro at ₹1,19,999. Even if the X500 series sells well below its box prices, it looks set to cost noticeably more than last year's models in India. vivo has not explained its pricing, and these remain leaks until 26 November. If you are considering an X300 Pro or X300 Ultra, prices on them may drop once the X500 series is out.
