I brought S24+ on pre release offer in India.
Phone is Awesome, everyone know that. In fact every reviewer says that.

I was very happy with my purchase as well. But I have been observing a pattern. While s24 first software update was released on 23rd of Feb, S24 plus model got is on 24th. 
Whats big deal its just 1 day right? Yes it is acceptable and I have no issue with that as well.

Now for security patch for month of march, both S24 and S24 Ultra got their security patches, but here am not having any idea when its going be available. 

I am not sure if its India thing or Exynos thing but mostly all non indian reviewers have received the update.

Also one more thing if look in the details about last update on any samsung phone you will see a link to dedicated page for that model showing all past updates and changes.

S24+ is the only model not worthy enough to get that as well.

All in all I feel like samsung either Ignoring Indian market or S24+ particularly.

No

But they are test their updates first on foreign countries.

Then at last they gives final update to indian humans.

So don't worry, if you get late update. Late means safe.

Fair point, but you need to consider that these are not just quality updates.
These updates contain very important security patches, which are not in control of samsung.
Also, google patches is still on January where as pixel and even MI phones got march upadat for google Play Security.

That is exactly my point . If I am being ignored after 1 month of launch while samsung is promising 7 years of update, how can I trust these claims 😳

Samsung's security updates are random. Sometimes country A will get the updates first and sometimes country B will get the updates first. But they are rolled to all the countries within 7-10 days

1 week up or down is not an issue in providing updates

I am having S24 base and I have not yet received the March update yet! Don't know from where you are getting information that Indian units of S24 base and ultra have received March updates

Those may not be Indian models
But in general, samsung is slow in delivering updates to indian market
