India’s mobile subscribers close to 400 million

Techtree reports India’s mobile subscriber base 391.76 million, despite the push, the growth in the rural sectors is slow. With a subscriber base of 282 million, urban centers account for 72% of all mobile users in the country. (Thanks @Sri for the link)

The cell phone revolution in India is an interesting case study, even as the numbers allude to a meteoric rise. Cell phone is being used for varied activities – netbanking, loans, information, shopping, net browsing, social media, etc. I am delighted to see you track the cell phone industry so very professionally. Well done Priyanka :) You may also like to check numbers, usage/behavior between postpaid and prepaid cell connections…..Pushpendra Mehta

Hi Pushpendra, Yes, I agree with you. I think that is one reason I am enjoying so much working on my dissertation. The whole arena is so dynamic right now with so many things happening simultaneously, that it is quite interesting to see what will eventually happen.
