The reported price of the S5 LTE, is significantly higher than the Exynos variant, which retails or around Rs. 38,000 in the Country. Samsung is infamous for slashing the price just a few weeks after launching a device, so if you are a bit patient, you could see a major price drop for the LTE variant as well.
