LG Electronics — Nexus 5X bootloop issue- Hardware Manufacturing Issue

Address:

This is a well known issue which both Google and LG Electronics have washed of their hands. The phone which was bought for 36000 INR is now a bricked paper weight after the September Nougat update from Google. The phone started to bootloop in Mid-November nearly a month after the update. Google says its a hardware issue but has not come forward with any official acknowledgement towards LG. Since the phone is out of warranty (Nov 5-expired) LG service centre is charging me 10000 for repair. Irrespective of when the phone was bought many customers have started facing the issue since mid-September post Nougat update. It is unclear if the hardware malfunction was triggered by the update as there is no official report from Google.
I need a free- repair or an entire refund for the product.
