One caveat that only shows up across platforms: Vega Professional VPPHC04 carries an MRP mismatch, meaning its listings show different maximum retail prices, while Philips MG9551 does not. That does not tell us which listing is wrong, or why, but it does mean the discount percentage on Vega Professional VPPHC04 is calculated from an MRP that differs between listings.
That ₹4,633 is the best of 3 listings we track for Philips MG9551, currently on Flipkart. Note that Philips MG9551 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.
