This Alphonso Trader In Pune Is Selling Mangoes On EMI

To mitigate the impact of inflation on the sale of expensive Devgad Hapus, a fruit seller in Pune has floated the idea of selling the tasty Alphonso on equated monthly instalments (EMIs). 

Gaurav Sanas, the owner of Green Mangoes in Pune’s Anand Nagar, is urging the lovers of Alphonso to forget about money and enjoy the king of fruits to their hearts’ content. 

Sanas has installed point-of-sale (POS) machines of a financial technology company which allows him to convert the bill amount into three to 18 EMIs on a range of credit cards and some debit cards. 

As per Sanas, a box of Devgad Hapus costs about Rs 4,000 (priced at Rs 600 to 1,300 a dozen). A buyer who does not want to pay the amount upfront, can choose to pay that amount in six EMIs of Rs 700, including the cost of the conversion charged by the bank.
