Corsair CV 650 psu comes with 16a plug while my UPS only has 6a plug socket.

Mu understanding is that power cord are universal. 

 

1)So can I use a 6a to 16a adaptor https://amzn.eu/d/f1aJ70s

 

2) there are also options for 6a to 16a convertor plug. Are they both same? They look same btw.

 

3 What's the benefit of using 6a instead of 16a or vice versa. Is 6a simply use for cost cuttings.

Using a convertor is fine as long as you are sure that it won't be a fire hazard. 

 

PSU cables are made in batches so they don't care if it's a unit that requires a 16A outlet or not they will still bundle the 16A cable.

You can also contact the company to send you a 6A cable or get one for ₹100-150.
