A post on the Xiaomi’s official MiUi forum has listed information about the MiUi 6. The MiUi 6 based on android KitKat and Lollipop (not confirmed) for Redmi phones timeline reveals the date when the specified Redmi models will get the update.
Unfortunately at the end of the post it is mentioned that the ROM’s refer to China ROM and not Global ROM. This means there is still no word as to when the Indian version will get the update. As per the post MiUi 6 based on Android 4.4 have already been rolled for Redmi 1S 4G version.
