Last week, a media report claimed that Realme was carrying out massive staff layoffs in India, starting with its sales team. This development came after a report from China claimed that Realme was merging with Oppo to become its sub-brand, which Realme had initially been. Today, we received an official statement from Realme’s Indian branch confirming that it was undergoing organizational restructuring in India, but that it wasn’t related to “any other brands.”
Realme also said it remains committed to India, its largest market outside China, and that its products, retail presence, and service commitments remain unaffected.
Here’s the full statement from Realme India:
“This adjustment is part of Realme India’s ongoing organizational optimization and is in line with normal industry benchmarks. This adjustment is unrelated to any other brands. Our products, retail presence, and service commitments remain fully unaffected. realme remains deeply committed to the Indian market and will continue to uphold our mission of making technology more accessible, serving millions of users, and creating sustained long-term value.”
