A man from Telangana’s Yadadri-Bhuvanagiri district buys a motorcycle by paying the full bill of about ₹1.10 lakh using only ₹10 coins, drawing attention after the transaction is shared online. Reports say Konde Raghupathi, a resident of Veliminedu village in Chityala mandal, fulfills a family goal of owning a motorcycle by using coins his family has been saving for years, with one account saying the savings begin in 2017. He purchases a Hero Splendor Plus motorcycle from Sri Vinayaka Motors in Chityala. Multiple outlets describe the payment as a large pile of coins carried in polythene bags, which showroom staff count to verify the total amount before completing the deal. One report notes that staff hand over a symbolic cardboard key after confirming the payment, with the motorcycle visible in the background. The video of the coin-counting and handover goes viral on social media, and the episode is compared by some outlets to similar coin-only purchase stories reported earlier in other parts of India.
