Rooting the Yu Yureka smartphone is one of the easiest tasks on this world, all thanks to the custom recovery that you installed on it. A custom recovery makes it really easy to flash the SuperSU zip and gain root on a device. Once you’ve rooted your phone, you’ll be able to install root-requiring apps, flash custom ROMs and custom kernels, and do many more things that you weren’t able to do before.
So, here’s your chance to customize your device by rooting it.
