Google has today launched the new version of its internet browser device Chromecast in India for Rs 3,399.
The Chromecast Audio was introduced in India by the company at the same price, which was launched in the US last year.
“With a sleek design, fresh content and an updated app, the new Chromecast will make streaming faster and easier,” Chromecast Partnerships Head Asia Pacific Mickey Kim told reporters here.

The Chromecast is available in 31 countries and 20 million users, but the company didn’t disclose any country specific data.
Using Chromecast, users can add smart TV functionality to their television to stream content from video services like YouTube and Netflix.
The online stores like Flipkart, Snapdeal and Paytm as well as retailers like Reliance and Croma, will have the device.
