alright. i do not think anyone of us posted this before. just wanted to update here.
first they made the apps sending notification ads system apps so they became uninstallable.
a recent updated went ahead and disabled the option to disable notifications from these apps.
i forgot to take a screenshot and i do not have the phone in hand to post screenshots. @Navjot Singh might be able to post some.

No A1 doesnt have ads... Thankfully... using it since 4 months
hard to say what is the criteria. maybe they start doing it after the phone is one year old. because it does not happen on all phones. my mom's phone is quite old (redmi note 1st gen) and i had to block a lot of apps on it. dad's phone has been relatively nuisance free. but it is a widely known thing that mi apps push notification ads. just a google search would confirm that.
How to stop ads popping from Browser in notifications. - Redmi Note 3 - Xiaomi MIUI Official Forum
Normally when I buy a new phone.. I first go and disable most permissions except one that I want to allow.
That could be the reason that I dont see advertisement. I may have unknowingly disabled some permission.

mi browser comes preloaded. disabling that removes all ads
There is another aspect of MiUI that I hate. The problem of 2 browsers / 2 Video players / 2 photo galleries / 2 music players and now 2 fucking app stores. Mi has started bundling its own app store which cannot be disabled, stopped or uninstalled and nor you can turn off the notifications completely on it. I don't want to install a fucking bhakti app.
Also like if your app is in need of update then apart from the Google play store update listing, Mi's App store will also send an update notification. And it can auto-update the app too but thankfully that part can be disabled.
Also one suggestion, if your phone's MiUI update is not updating the Android version for your device, then stop updating the MIUI as well. Because each new MIUI update just adds 1 more annoyance or disables some ability in their own app. I won't install anymore MIUI update.

^first thing I do when I get xiaomi phone is to root it, install titanium backup and remove that godawful mi app store and mi browser adware. I recently saw the ads on my uncles phones and he was pissed. "hot videos ke liya button press kariye" what not and its very easy to click them while trying to remove that notification
thankfully Asus and Oppo are stepping up competition to xiaomi
