New Plasma by Panasonic - Viera P42G10 (Launched in India)

The problem is the VERY high gap in MRP set by Panasonic and the dealer price. Thus you have this anomaly of prices varying so much depending on the discount each dealer is willing to offer.

The MRP and street prices comparison:

42"
G10: 80,000 | 55,000
S10: 68,000 | 50,000
X10: 54,000 | 42,000
C10: 52,000 | 36,000 (The prices supposedly are so low due to a Diwali scheme under which Panasonic dumped huge quantities of 42" C10 on the dealers, who are now trying to liquidate them)

50"
V10: 150,000 | 120,000 (Reported by someone else to be available for 110,000)
S10: 126,000 | 100,000
X10: 90,000 | 75,000
C10: 79,000 | 68,000 (Reported by someone to be available for 60,000)


Do keep in mind, that the 'V10' is 50" whereas the 'G10' is only 42".

@ sanjay thanks. The prices at alfa in mumbai are normally the most competetive. Hence i'm surprised by the diff in the prices.

I'm aware that the v10 is a 50" & g10 a 42" but most of the specs are much the same hence was intrested to know as to how much of a diff does it have under say tata sky set top box or a HD signal.

Cheers

Lol..
Thumbs down is for panasonic's stategy not for your comment..

50" G10 costs only marginally less than the V10.
The panel is same and the distinguishing feature is the look and feel (full glass) and few minor changes.
