5. Brand Strategy
Xiomi is trying to focus in earlier stages in rural areas with
Smartphones in the price range of 3K-22K, because when we
consider Indian market major population lies on rural area which
is a huge market in itself. We can focus and align our strategy by
focusing towards Smartphone's which have great response over
the entire Indian market.

6. India Mobile and Smartphone Market
India: Emerging Smartphone Market
 Breaking out to Smartphone's from Featured phones
 When there are about 650 million mobile users in India, only
12 per cent of them are Smartphone users. So the headroom to
grow is tremendous.
 Focusing the youth
 Younger generation are so fascinated towards Smartphone's.
 They depend more on it, rather than PC for most of the work

In India major brands in Mobile phones
are Nokia, Apple,Mi,Samsung and
Micromax which have a market share of

There are other brands like Maxx,
Celkon, Gionee which have also
launched their budgeted Smartphones in
India and cover around 34% market
