Startup behind â¹9 lakh smartphone fires one-third staff
British startup Sirin Labs, which launched the 'Solarin' Android smartphone at over â¹9 lakh last year, has laid off one-third of its 90 employees. However, Sirin dismissed rumours that it was also ending production of the Solarin. The phone was touted to be the world's most secure with military-grade encryption and physical switch to activate shielded mode for secure calls.
