While we though Motorola plans to bring the Moto G to India exclusively via Flipkart , the device went up for preorder on Snapdeal .  The website has reportedly received 1,000 preorders for the 8GB Moto G, and the site now says that its stock of the phone is all “sold out”.

The online retailer also promises some “incredible” offers such as lucky winners could win 100 percent cashback on the Moto G, Rs 500 discount on e-books and more.
