PS5 Pro listed in BIS databases

First reported by High Chaos Run, the X user Arjun Campbell tweeted out, suggesting that the PlayStation 5 Pro has been registered in the BIS databases. Furthermore, he added that the console was added with the model number ‘CFI-7121’ in the database. 

To confirm this discovery, we went to the BIS database website and entered the R-number mentioned in the screenshot shared by the user. The model number CFI-7121 popped up along with the date of March 9, 2026, confirming that the news is indeed true.

When is the console launching in India?

Now that we know that the console has been listed on BIS databases, a major question that comes up is how long it could take for the console to arrive on the Indian shores. Well, we would still have to wait for official word from Sony, as unfortunately, they are yet to announce any release dates for the PS5 Pro in the country. But now with the BIS certification, there could be an update from the company soon. 

PS5 Pro India pricing expectations

Last but not least, talking about the Indian pricing that is expected for the console, there are a few speculations from experts. Given that the console currently retails for Rs 70,000 to Rs 80,000 in the grey markets, many expect the console to be sold for around Rs 75,000. 

What’s important to note here is that, unlike the regular PlayStation 5 disc edition, the PS5 Pro does not come with a disc drive by default. To play disc-based games on the PS5 Pro, users would have to buy the disc drive, which is sold separately.
