If you are also seeing any such symptoms in your phone, then understand that you too can be eligible for this free replacement program.

Google has kept an easy process for this:
Register: First of all, you have to fill an online form, where you have to enter the IMEI number of your phone. This will tell whether your phone is covered in this program or not.
Go to the service center: If your phone is found to be included in this program, then you will have to go to any authorized service center of Google.
Inspection and replacement: There the technical experts will examine your phone. If the battery is confirmed to be swollen, then the battery will be replaced absolutely free of cost.

The good news for indian users is that google has started this program here too. If you want, you can go directly to your nearest service center and get it repaired or you can also take advantage of the mail-in option. However, keep in mind that this facility is available for a limited time or till the battery stock lasts.
