Yesterday Micromax informed us of the update in the form of a tweet. They were clever enough to include keyphrases like No Ads & No Bloatware experience, which was a sarcastic blow on competing Chinese smartphone manufacturers. Micromax also said that the update is being rolled out in batches. So expect a delay of up to 15 days for the update to reach your device.
According to the official Micromax forum, the update is around 1.6GB. The users will receive a notification when the update is available for their device.
