One caveat that only shows up across platforms: Philips HP6388 carries an MRP mismatch, meaning its listings show different maximum retail prices, while Vega VHTH19 does not. That does not tell us which listing is wrong, or why, but it does mean the discount percentage on Philips HP6388 is calculated from an MRP that differs between listings.
That ₹974 is the best of 3 listings we track for Vega VHTH19, currently on Nykaa. Note that Vega VHTH19 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.
