Nokia’s plans for the Lumia 620 have been rather puzzling as of late. The company had earlier announced that it would be available in February, but more than half the month has passed by without any sign of the handset. Even our grey market sources don’t seem to know when the phone will be hitting Indian shores. We contacted the company and a representative said that information on the release of the phone in India will only be revealed later this week at the earliest.We are still pretty sure though that Nokia is actively working towards getting the phones on Indian shelves, as the company has kicked off a competition on its Twitter page related to the handset. The competition entails using the #YourWishIsMyApp hashtag and giving opinions on Nokia’s ideas for apps, with the winner getting their hands on a Lumia 620 of their own.There could be any number of reasons for the delay of the phones, the major of which is possibly issues with importing the handsets. Nokia has faced some trouble with the import, and thus the pricing of the handset.
