How to buy the Sony PlayStation 5 for less than Rs 50,000

The Sony PlayStation 5 may have launched two years ago, but it wasn’t until earlier this year that you could actually get your hands on one without some insane luck, or a dip into the grey market. However, for anyone planning to get a brand-new Sony PlayStation 5 this festive season, here’s why you may want to pre-pone your purchase.

The Sony PS5 is currently available on Croma for a discounted price of Rs 47,490 for the disc edition. That’s a discount of over Rs 7,500 for the next-gen gaming console. This disc edition essentially lets you play games from a disc or digitally.
