The Infinix hot S is one of the new devices Infinix just released. And like most of Infinix recently released devices, this phone runs on Android version 6.0 marshmallow out of the box which makes it a bit difficult to root for those who might be planning to do so since the phone's firmware is still pretty new.

If you happen to be a phone freak or you just enjoy making lots of modifications and tweaking on your smartphone then rooting might be one of those things you would most likely want to do on your phone. But if you own a device running on Android marshmallow like the Infinix hot S, then you might not be able to automatically root your phone with one click root apps such as KingRoot since exploit for most devices running on marshmallow aren't available yet.

But all thanks to the TEAM for always providing the needed custom recovery. With the ported Twrp Recovery, you can manually root your phone. I will just put you through on the necessary steps to flash the custom recovery and also install the SuperSU.zip for root access.
