Which one to buy

Buyer ratings don't separate them. 4.0★ and 4.0★ are close enough to be noise, across 39,440 and 18,483 ratings. Neither product is carrying a reputation problem the other avoids.
One caveat that only shows up across platforms: Vega VHTH38 carries an MRP mismatch, meaning its listings show different maximum retail prices, while Havells BT5100C does not. That does not tell us which listing is wrong, or why, but it does mean the discount percentage on Vega VHTH38 is calculated from an MRP that differs between listings.
That ₹499 is the best of 3 listings we track for Vega VHTH38, currently on Amazon. Note that Vega VHTH38 appears on fewer stores (2), so its price has less competition to hold it down and is the more likely of the two to drift.
