By Prarthito

Microsoft and Nokia have been in news for the last few weeks due to an assorted range of reasons. While, Nokia has been highlighted in the recent past for releasing its first ever Android-based device, it has also seen a lot of action after the recent acquisition of its Mobiles division via Microsoft.

However, keeping up with all the latest events following the company, Microsoft is finally set to lift the veil off its upcoming Windows Phone 8.1-powered range in India. GizBot has recently got an invite from the company for its upcoming press conference on May 12, 2014.

The press invite says, 'The Power of Two and GizBot has come to know from an inside source that Lumia 630 Dual SIM variant launch is set to happen on the same day. Apparently, the Lumia 630 is also the first Lumia-based dual SIM supporting device, which goes with the invite message.

Moreover, fans will also be interested to know that both the Lumia 630 single SIM variant and the Lumia 630 dual SIM variant have already been listed on the company's India store with a "coming soon" tag to it.
