Unable to update MIUI locally

[EnthusiasticMalfunction]

so i was trying to locally update my Redmi device from MIUI 8 (Marshmellow) to MIUI 10 (Nougat). I downloaded update .zip file and put it in internal storage in "downloaded_rom" folder. But whenever i try to apply this update Updater app shows pop up saying "To download this update, connect to a Wi-Fi network". I couln't find anything online.

Has encountered somethg like this

Further info:
i'm on MIUI 8.2.6.0 | Stable and update which i downloaded from XDA is named 'miui_HM4AGlobal_V10.1.1.0.NCCMIFI_bf43214d8e_7.1.zip'

Was the phone actually connected to WiFi and the internet? Maybe MIUI needs to download some additional data to complete the update, that's just a guess of course.

No phone was not connected to any Wi-Fi network because i don't have Wi-Fi around me. And no i guess Updater App is just not recognising the upadte file and is actually asking me to download it first. Thus im confused whats happening here
