THIS PHONE does not support for airtel volte services and for full charging is taking so much time atleast 4-5 hours. the charger is damaged after 1 year of buying of this phone. and it is not a fast charger.
I didn't satisfied about battery.The full charged battery can down 1% is taking 2-3 hours. And the phone software is running slowly(strucking) and when cellular data is on then the phone will hang on

The worst phone i ever used. Extreme slowness is the main problem. The thing freezes for 2 to 3 sec every 15 sec. the screen will not respond when tapped at times of attempting to wake it up but the screen capture sounds work. Cant change the message alert tone externally. Going back, the phone is really trashy. I will commend the battery conservation feature though.

Prasad,
You don't need the service center. What you need is:
1. Go to Asus Zenfone Max support site here:
https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-Max-ZC550KL/HelpDesk_Download/
On the menu choose Android, then on the firmware section and download the latest system which at this moment should be this:
Version WW 8916-13.8.26.110 dated 2018/03/05. Yes it is 1.52 GBytes large file and download to PC might take some time.
2. You will then need to copy this big file onto a microSD card. After copying the file to microSD card, insert the micro-sd card into the phone.
3. Then press power button and volume down button simultaneously and hold it for a few seconds until the phone shows the recovery screen.
4. Use the volume button to move up and down and the menu and choose the option to update system from microSD card.
5. Select the system file that you download that is on your microSD card.
6. When done updating and reboot. Voila.
This video from YouTube shows step 3 onwards.

I was most curious about this one, because my specs were that it has 4G, 16GB internal memory (minimum), and a good battery life. I purchased one in Malaysia 3 years ago, and I am still using it. Both front and rear cameras give a clear picture, but, of course as I have downloaded app after app (some becoming obsolete), the internal memory has filled up. I find the dual SIM a good idea, but it's best putting the second into a basic additional phone to supplement and support 3G calls. A novel idea if you have a SIM from 2 countries, and don't want to swap the SIM cards in the phone as you travel. I do enjoy the 'clock face' features in its jacket, which are not available in Australia (where I live) and will keep using it while it works. Overall good value for money, but not available in Australia.
