This phone is a Dual SIM active, just like the Galaxy Grand 9080.
But why no Gorilla glass Micromax, how much could it be? and why keep the glass a secret, is it an Asahi Dragontail, Schott?

The Samsung Grand is 5,000 more and you get lesser pixel density at 187 vs 294 for the Canvas HD, it is only dual core and has no Gorilla Glass either.

Atleast with a Samsung, you have better Bluetooth, GLONASS and brand credibility earned over the years.

Lava is coming out with the fastest Tegra 4 LTE with 72 graphic cores, possibly around the same price in March.

A Chinese company will launch the JiaYu G4 for Rs 9,000 with 2GB RAM, Gorilla Glass 2, 3000mAh battery, 1.2 Quadcore Mediatek, 4.7 inch IPS, 13 MP Camera/3 MP front, LED & HD recording.

Micromax A110 Canvas 2 is of very cheap quality and its touch sensitivity is lost with in first month. we will have to tap it continuously every time to do a task. worst music quality as there is only loudness. phone hangs a million times a day!

Micromax a116 hd scores:
Quadrant-3609
Nenamark 2- 40.3 fps
Antutu- 8200

Samsung galaxy grand:
Quadrant: 3967
Nenamark 2: 58.8fps
Antutu: 8631

In benchmarks, features, camera, battery life SGG comes on top. IMO sgg is best in all dept and comes with all features in jb 4.1.2 and is the better choice between both.
