Following the official launch of Nokia’s Lumia 1520 smartphone in India, retailers in the country have started to add the device to their offerings, including Flipkart, which is currently listing it as available for pre-order.

The largest Windows Phone 8 handset out there can be seen on this page on the retailer’s website, with a price tag of Rs. 45,999 ($743/€539) attached to it.

Those who want to reserve the mobile phone through Flipkart will receive their units sometime in the fourth week of December, it seems.

Although users will have to wait about one week for the device to land in their hands, the fact that the Lumia 1520 is available at Rs. 1,000 ($16/€12) less than Nokia’s official price tag might appeal to many.

Nokia has launched the smartphone with a 6-inch LCD full HD screen, 2.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB of RAM, and a 20MP camera on the back.
