You are free to try any version of your choice, but it is recommended to try the newer builds only and that of your region. To download the firmware, you may use the official MIUI Forum .

Or if that is inaccessible, you may also take the help of a third-party site such as Xiaomi Firmware Updater. Furthermore, if you wish to understand the Xiaomi Fastboot firmware version, you may refer to our comprehensive guide on What is MIUI Fastboot ROM for Xiaomi, Mi, Redmi, Poco Devices . Or here’s the instruction in short,

• 14.0.1.0. – Firmware version

• NQ – Smartphone model code (NQ= Redmi Note 13 5G)
• IN – Firmware build type (CN for China | IN for India | MI for Global | EU for Europe)

1. To begin with, you will have to boot your device to the Fastboot Mode. The first step for that requires you to power it off.
2. If you cannot do so (due to your device being stuck in a bootloop) then the only option left is to let the entire battery drain out (remember the good old days when we could easily remove the battery!).
3. Once your device has turned off, press and hold the Volume Down and Power buttons for a few seconds.
4. This will boot your device to Fastboot Mode. You should see the famous Mi Bunny Logo with the Fastboot text underneath it.
