Which one to buy
These are not really competing at the same price: Havells HS4101 costs ₹250 more than Vega VHSH42, 42% above it. The question is less which is better value and more whether Havells HS4101 does something you actually need.
The ratings pull against the price here. Havells HS4101 is the more expensive of the two yet scores 4.2★ to 4.1★, so the premium is buying something buyers evidently notice. Whether it is worth ₹250 depends on how much that difference matters to you.
Both products carry an MRP mismatch: the listings we track show different maximum retail prices for each of them. Since MRP is printed on the pack, at least one displayed figure per product does not match it, so the discount on either listing is calculated from a number we cannot verify. Compare the rupee prices above and disregard both percentages.
The ₹599 figure is on Amazon, and is the lowest we observed across every listing we track for it. Prices on both products move often enough that it is worth opening each listing before deciding.
