FACT CHECK
NewsMobile fact-checked the viral claim and found it to be a scam.
A keyword search returned no official government notification, press release, or credible media report announcing such a scheme. A nationwide initiative of this scale would have received widespread coverage across mainstream news.
A closer examination of the video shows clear signs of AI-generated manipulation — including lip-sync inconsistencies, synthetic audio, and unusually smooth facial movements that do not match natural speech.
Further verification using Hive Moderation’s AI-detection tool confirmed that the footage had been digitally altered.

In conclusion, the viral video is an AI-generated scam. No such ₹10 smartphone scheme has been announced by the Government of India.
